I'd be interested in seeing something like that. Monitoring is hard and if you notice something that others are not doing but has been useful in your environment - I think submitting a patch along with your use-case and results of your experiments are always welcome in the community (not to put words in the mouths of the official maintainers - which I am not.) Others may then also experiment and build off of it. Or abandon it if proves not to be useful.
Ultimately, monitoring is a science - so I'd suggest you approach it that way. You've observed something. Now create a test to prove or disprove and submit your patch for peer review. :) -B -----Original Message----- From: Devel [mailto:devel-bounces+bryair01=noa.nintendo....@monitoring-plugins.org] On Behalf Of Andreas Ericsson Sent: Friday, August 21, 2015 5:30 AM To: Monitoring Plugins Development Subject: Re: check_http and time to first byte (#1346) On 2015-08-20 21:29, jeffadams wrote: > I'd like the ability to alert on time to first byte.
