下面介绍下2者的差别:
1、request_time
官网描述:request processing time in seconds with a millisecondsresolution; time elapsed between the first bytes were read from theclient and the log write after the last bytes were sent to theclient 。
指的就是从接受用户请求的第一个字节到发送完响应数据的时间,即包括接收请求数据时间、程序响应时间、输出
响应数据时间。
2、upstream_response_time
官网描述:keeps times of responses obtained from upstream servers;times are kept in seconds with a milliseconds resolution. Severalresponse times are separated by commas and colons like addresses inthe $upstream_addr variable
是指从Nginx向后端(php-cgi)建立连接开始到接受完数据然后关闭连接为止的时间。
从上面的描述可以看出,$request_time肯定比$upstream_response_time值大,特别是使用POST方式传递参数时,因为Nginx会把requestbody缓存住,接受完毕后才会把数据一起发给后端。所以如果用户网络较差,或者传递数据较大时,$request_time会比$upstream_response_time大很多。
所以如果使用nginx的accesslog查看php程序中哪些接口比较慢的话,记得在log_format中加入$upstream_response_time。
