ID: 65634 Updated by: ahar...@php.net Reported by: butesa at freenet dot de Summary: HTTP wrapper is very slow with protocol_version 1.1 -Status: Assigned +Status: Closed Type: Bug Package: HTTP related Operating System: Ubuntu 12.04 x64 PHP Version: 5.5.3 Assigned To: aharvey Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Implemented on master: https://github.com/php/php-src/commit/8983a38d5130c11bd96643dfa2b2f1393ac5969d I don't think this is a good candidate for 5.4 or 5.5: it's debatable whether this is a bug fix, and it does subtly change PHP's behaviour. I'd be surprised if it broke any code, but it should be something users have to test, and putting it in the next version should ensure that. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-09-11 20:30:19] ahar...@php.net Fair point. Let me see if we can send a Connection: close request header by default and allow overriding via the headers context option if the user wants it for some reason. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-09-10 19:43:18] butesa at freenet dot de I looked into RFC 2616 today. It says: HTTP/1.1 applications that do not support persistent connections MUST include the "close" connection option in every message. Obviously, the HTTP wrapper can't handle persistent connections correctly. So it should automatically add a Connection: close header when protocol_version is set to 1.1. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-09-09 23:52:31] butesa at freenet dot de I don't see how it can be not a bug if a http request takes 100 seconds. If the server uses connection: keep-alive, then the client has to close the connection if it doesn't want to make any further requests. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-09-09 23:03:47] ahar...@php.net Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php www.google.de responds with a keep-alive connection when a HTTP/1.1 request is made and no Connection request header is included, which is valid in RFC 2616. Sending a "Connection: close" request header restores the 1.0 behaviour. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-09-08 16:27:47] butesa at freenet dot de Description: ------------ Loading a website with the http wrapper takes very long if protocol_version is set to 1.1. The time it takes depends on the timeout. On some servers the problem doesn't occur. I tested also on Ubuntu 10.04 (PHP 5.3.2-1ubuntu4.19) and Ubuntu 12.04 (PHP 5.3.10-1ubuntu3.7), both 64bit. Test script: --------------- <?php $url = 'http://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/?fg=1'; foreach(array(1.0,1.1) as $proto) { for ($timeout = 1; $timeout < 60; $timeout+=10) { $st = microtime(true); $opt = array( 'http' => array( 'timeout' => $timeout, 'protocol_version' => $proto, ), ); $context = stream_context_create($opt); $content = file_get_contents($url,false,$context); printf("%2d %.1f %f %s\n", $timeout, $proto, microtime(true) - $st, md5($content)); } } ?> Expected result: ---------------- The request takes the same time, no matter what timeout and protocol_version is set. Actual result: -------------- Output of the test script: For $url='http://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/?fg=1': 1 1.0 0.279102 60bf7bc72d2a06b337c8a8464e0f9e66 11 1.0 0.277956 60bf7bc72d2a06b337c8a8464e0f9e66 21 1.0 0.283753 60bf7bc72d2a06b337c8a8464e0f9e66 31 1.0 0.285862 60bf7bc72d2a06b337c8a8464e0f9e66 41 1.0 0.277894 60bf7bc72d2a06b337c8a8464e0f9e66 51 1.0 0.285653 60bf7bc72d2a06b337c8a8464e0f9e66 1 1.1 2.284301 60bf7bc72d2a06b337c8a8464e0f9e66 11 1.1 22.305424 60bf7bc72d2a06b337c8a8464e0f9e66 21 1.1 42.309270 60bf7bc72d2a06b337c8a8464e0f9e66 31 1.1 62.355997 60bf7bc72d2a06b337c8a8464e0f9e66 41 1.1 82.360794 60bf7bc72d2a06b337c8a8464e0f9e66 51 1.1 102.379933 60bf7bc72d2a06b337c8a8464e0f9e66 For $url='http://www.example.com': 1 1.0 0.491382 09b9c392dc1f6e914cea287cb6be34b0 11 1.0 0.426191 09b9c392dc1f6e914cea287cb6be34b0 21 1.0 0.428513 09b9c392dc1f6e914cea287cb6be34b0 31 1.0 0.423852 09b9c392dc1f6e914cea287cb6be34b0 41 1.0 0.423751 09b9c392dc1f6e914cea287cb6be34b0 51 1.0 0.431590 09b9c392dc1f6e914cea287cb6be34b0 1 1.1 1.420486 09b9c392dc1f6e914cea287cb6be34b0 11 1.1 6.143113 09b9c392dc1f6e914cea287cb6be34b0 21 1.1 5.994384 09b9c392dc1f6e914cea287cb6be34b0 31 1.1 5.991940 09b9c392dc1f6e914cea287cb6be34b0 41 1.1 6.012121 09b9c392dc1f6e914cea287cb6be34b0 51 1.1 6.007920 09b9c392dc1f6e914cea287cb6be34b0 For $url='http://www.php.net': 1 1.0 1.673016 2dcc6fe85b335205a35d9980a9095735 11 1.0 1.935555 2dcc6fe85b335205a35d9980a9095735 21 1.0 1.648235 2dcc6fe85b335205a35d9980a9095735 31 1.0 1.637566 2dcc6fe85b335205a35d9980a9095735 41 1.0 1.633473 2dcc6fe85b335205a35d9980a9095735 51 1.0 1.718051 2dcc6fe85b335205a35d9980a9095735 1 1.1 1.647803 2dcc6fe85b335205a35d9980a9095735 11 1.1 1.863799 2dcc6fe85b335205a35d9980a9095735 21 1.1 1.673567 2dcc6fe85b335205a35d9980a9095735 31 1.1 1.651704 2dcc6fe85b335205a35d9980a9095735 41 1.1 1.657976 2dcc6fe85b335205a35d9980a9095735 51 1.1 1.635651 2dcc6fe85b335205a35d9980a9095735 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65634&edit=1
