Re: Does user's network connection speed affect "response time" loggedby AccessLogValve (i.e. "%D") ?

[Pierre Goupil <go...@gmail.com>]

Hello,

I'm sorry but... Does it mean that network connection speed effectively
affect the response time logged by the AccessLogValve ? Something is still
unclear for me, I'm afraid.

Regards,

Pierre

In a word yes, but only for large transfers.  If the servlet has to wait for more input from the client, that will count; if the output cannot be sent immediately due to congestion or the client not ACK'ing the transfers, that can also delay the servlet.  Whether or not such conditions could occur depend mostly on what and how much you're receiving and sending.
