14 // Structure containing timing information for a request.
15 // It addresses the needs of
16 // http://groups.google.com/group/http-archive-specification/web/har-1-1-spec,
17 // http://dev.w3.org/2006/webapi/WebTiming/, and
18 // http://www.w3.org/TR/resource-timing/.
19 //
20 // All events that do not apply to a request have null times.  For non-HTTP
21 // requests, all times other than the request_start times are null.
22 //
23 // Requests with connection errors generally only have request start times as
24 // well, since they never received an established socket.
25 //
26 // The general order for events is:
27 // request_start
28 // proxy_start
29 // proxy_end
30 // dns_start
31 // dns_end
32 // connect_start
33 // ssl_start
34 // ssl_end
35 // connect_end
36 // send_start
37 // send_end
38 // receive_headers_end
39 //
40 // Times represent when a request starts/stops blocking on an event, not the
41 // time the events actually occurred.  In particular, in the case of preconnects
42 // and socket reuse, no time may be spent blocking on establishing a connection.
43 // In the case of SPDY, PAC scripts are only run once for each shared session,
44 // so no time may be spent blocking on them.
45 //
46 // DNS and SSL times are both times for the host, not the proxy, so DNS times
47 // when using proxies are null, and only requests to HTTPS hosts (Not proxies)
48 // have SSL times.  One exception to this is when a proxy server itself returns
49 // a redirect response.  In this case, the connect times treat the proxy as the
50 // host.  The send and receive times will all be null, however.
51 // See HttpNetworkTransaction::OnHttpsProxyTunnelResponse.
52 // TODO(mmenke):  Is this worth fixing?
53 //
54 // Note that internal to the network stack, times are when events actually
55 // occurred.  URLRequest converts them to time which the network stack was
56 // blocked on each state.
