.SH "DESCRIPTION OF OUTPUT"
.PP
The following list describes the values returned by ab:
.TP
Server Software
The value, if any, returned in the \fIserver\fR HTTP header of the first successful response\&. This includes all characters in the header from beginning to the point a character with decimal value of 32 (most notably: a space or CR/LF) is detected\&.
.TP
Server Hostname
The DNS or IP address given on the command line
.TP
Server Port
The port to which ab is connecting\&. If no port is given on the command line, this will default to 80 for http and 443 for https\&.
.TP
SSL/TLS Protocol
The protocol parameters negotiated between the client and server\&. This will only be printed if SSL is used\&.
.TP
Document Path
The request URI parsed from the command line string\&.
.TP
Document Length
This is size in bytes of the first succesfully returning document\&. If the document length changes during testing, the response is considered an error\&.
.TP
Concurrency Level
The number of concurrent clients used during the test
.TP
Time taken for tests
This is the time taken from the moment the first socket connection is created to the moment the last response is recieved
.TP
Complete requests
The number of successful responses recieved
.TP
Failed requests
The number of requests that were considered a failure\&. If the number is greater than zero, another line will be printed showing the numer of requests that failed due to connecting, reading, incorrect content length, or exceptions\&.
.TP
Write errors
The number of errors that failed during write (broken pipe)\&.
.TP
Non-2xx responses
The number of responses that were not in the 200 series of response codes\&. If all responses were 200, this field is not printed\&.
.TP
Keep-Alive requests
The number of connections that resulted in Keep-Alive requests
.TP
Total body sent
If configured to send data as part of the test, this is the total number of bytes sent during the tests\&. This field is omitted if the test did not include a body to send\&.
.TP
Total transferred
The total number of bytes received from the server\&. This number is essentially the number of bytes sent over the wire\&.
.TP
HTML transferred
The total number of document bytes received from the server\&. This number excludes bytes received in HTTP headers
.TP
Requests per second
This is the number of requests per second\&. This value is the result of dividing the number of requests by the total time taken
.TP
Time per request
The average time spent per request\&. The first value is calculated with the formula concurrency * timetaken * 1000 / done while the second value is calculated with the formula timetaken * 1000 / done
.TP
Transfer rate
The rate of transfer as calculated by the formula totalread / 1024 / timetaken
