Understanding Temporal Metrics

Figure 1 shows the sequence of events for a URL session task, which correspond to the temporal metrics captured by NSURLSessionTaskTransactionMetrics.

Figure 1 Timeline of temporal metrics for a URL session task Diagram showing the temporal metrics for a URL session task. When a task starts, it performs a DNS lookup and then starts a connection. If the connection is encrypted, the user agent starts a TLS security handshake to secure the connection. After the connection to the server is established, the user agent requests the specified resource, and receives a response.

For all metrics with a start and end date, if an aspect of the task was not completed, then its corresponding end date metric is nil. This can happen if name lookup begins, but the operation either times out, fails, or the client cancels the task before the name can be resolved. In this case, the domainLookupEndDate property is nil, along with all metrics for aspects that occurred afterwards

This image, which I picked up from the Internet, shows where the attributes of the nsurlsession task transactionmetrics are in the process of the request.

------------------越是喧嚣的世界，越需要宁静的思考------------------ 合抱之木，生于毫末；九层之台，起于垒土；千里之行，始于足下。积土成山，风雨兴焉；积水成渊，蛟龙生焉；积善成德，而神明自得，圣心备焉。故不积跬步，无以至千里；不积小流，无以成江海。骐骥一跃，不能十步；驽马十驾，功在不舍。锲而舍之，朽木不折；锲而不舍，金石可镂。蚓无爪牙之利，筋骨之强，上食埃土，下饮黄泉，用心一也。蟹六跪而二螯，非蛇鳝之穴无可寄托者，用心躁也。
