httping 1.2.6 (Default branch)
Imagehttping is a "ping"-like tool for HTTP requests. Give it a URL and it will show how long it takes to connect, send a request, and retrieve the reply (only the headers). It can be used for monitoring or statistical purposes (measuring latency).License: GNU General Public License (GPL)Changes:
measured latency can now be split into the time toconnect and the time to exchange a request withthe HTTP server. Showing the status-code no longergarbles the screen.Image
