I know it is not needed to install Jenkins on the slave machine. And this way, master shares it's configuration settings with it's slave over the communication link, as far as I know.

Well my question is, does installing Jenkins on the slave machine with same configuration affect the slave's performance or not?

Hi,
I think you should rephrase because I personally am not sure I understand what you need.
Cheers

Hi,

What am I saying is, should I install Jenkins as a service on slave even though It will have same configuration as it's master. Will that affect the performance in a positive way?

You don't install Jenkins on slave. You typically install Jenkins only on one machine, and then use something, like ssh, to get slaves running on other machines. The "slave.jar" is only one file and a slave directory is different than the one on the master.
