Ever tried logging Apache page serve times using '%D'? You'll have discovered
|
||
|
that they aren't a good index of your server's performance, because they depend
|
||
|
more on the client's connection speed, computer and browsing habits than on the
|
||
|
speed of your server.
|
||
|
|
||
|
mod_log_firstbyte is a module for Apache 2.0 which allows you to log the time
|
||
|
between each request being read and the first byte of the response served.
|
||
|
Unlike the total serve time, this index of performance tells you how long Apache
|
||
|
actually spent loading the file off the disk or executing your script: it's
|
||
|
independent of client connection speed. It makes a great performance benchmark
|
||
|
for your server!
