Totally Disable JMeter Cache

I am testing a few JSON APIs against strong stress. However, at one point the "Trend" of increasing response times plateaus. It increases to a very high point and then goes down into a response time that never changes.

I have tried unticking all both JMeter cache manager options, and set the max cache size to one. Also added an HTTP header that the max life on Cache-Control is zero.

How do I totally disable caching in JMeter?

Note :

I searched for relevant posts : however, what comes up is designing JMeter to act like a browser. I am trying to do the total opposite.

There is no caching unless you use HTTP Cache Manager.

Your issue might be due to overwhelmed server responding with either request rejection or wrong response that takes few seconds to compute. Or you might be hitting a bandwidth limiter or firewall.

Check by adding assertion that your responses are correct.

if everything is ok then you just might be having a server cache, so response times degrade until cache is filled up.
