Hello, I've got a question about obtaining more detailed information of my benchmark runs. I have set "Stats Collection Interval" under the Driver tab to 1. So, I presume that all response time values in the file 'detail.xan' correspond to the average of all operations that finish within that 1 second period.
That's right.
Now, I would like to have every individual response time recorded in order to perform other calculations that Faban reports don't provide.
Unfortunately, Faban does not (yet) record individual request timing information. It will either cause excessive I/O or cause memory bloat, depending on the design. This would be a Faban request. Feel free to log the request at http://faban.sunsource.net/
Also, I suspect that some operations are not completing due to "connection refused" on steady state. However, no warning message appears in the log (log levels in all systems are set to INFO).
Errors with connection refused will get logged at WARNING level. I doubt this will get dropped. If you see no errors, it will very unlikely be a connection refused.
I hope
I could identify these errors if individual response times are recorded. What is the most straightforward way of obtaining such information?
I can probably help you isolate them even without recording individual response times. Can you explain your problem in more detail why you're suspecting connection refused issues.
Also, if you want to know whether connection refused get logged properly, just shut down Apache (or whatever web server you're using) mid run. If the run just stays quiet and keeps running along as if nothing happens, there's an issue to be logged.
