Recommended Tool - httpstat

Oct 3, 2016

I ran across Dave Cheney's httpstat tool recently and tried to get it working but I'm not a Go person so that failed. I re-discovered it closing out a metric crap ton of browser tabs and thought "hm… I wonder if it is in brew yet". So a quick:

brew install httpstat

gave it to me perfectly. I can now do things like:

httpstat http://dave.cheney.net/

Here's an example from one of my current sites (url omitted deliberately):

Looking at this very clearly shows me that the single biggest slow down here is actually dns. Go figure. If I was optimizing for performance, I would never have thought to investigate a half second of DNS delay.

Thank you Dave Cheney!
