About httpstat
httpstat wraps curl and presents its statistics as a clear terminal chart, splitting a request into DNS lookup, TCP connection, TLS handshake, server processing and content transfer. That makes it quick to see where a slow request spends its time.
It is a single Python 3 script with no dependencies, and it can also print structured JSON or JSON Lines for use in scripts. It suits developers and operators debugging API latency.
Strengths
- Timing breakdown of DNS, TCP, TLS, server and transfer phases
- Single Python file with no dependencies
- JSON and JSONL output for scripting
Limitations
- Requires curl and Python 3
- Measures one request at a time rather than load testing
