[squid-users] Time to serve request

Hi,

I need to understand what %tr (ie. Time to serve request) means. Does the
figure include any time for the response to be sent back to the client, or
is it the time that the proxy server has completed the processing of a
request???

For example, if I have an access from client --> Squid Proxy 1 --> Squid
Proxy 2 --> Web server and the %tr captured on Squid Proxy 1 log is 1500
milliseconds and on Squid Proxy 2 is 1000 milliseconds. Am I right with the
following interpretation:

                                  500 ms 1000 ms
Client --> Squid Proxy 1 -----------> Squid Proxy 2 -------------> Web
server
              + 1500 ms +
              
+-----------------------------------------------------------------+

1000 milliseconds is between Squid Proxy 2 and Web server and the 1500
millisecond is from Squid Proxy 1 to Squid Proxy 2 to Web server. That is to
say, the latency between Squid Proxy 1 and Squid Proxy 2 is (1500 - 1000)
milliseconds which is equal to 500 milliseconds.

Thank you.
