CURLINFO_...FER_TIME_T(3)  Library Functions Manual  CURLINFO_...FER_TIME_T(3)

NAME
       CURLINFO_STARTTRANSFER_TIME_T  -	 get  the time until the first byte is
       received

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode	curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle,	CURLINFO_STARTTRANSFER_TIME_T,
				  curl_off_t *timep);

DESCRIPTION
       Pass a pointer to a curl_off_t to receive the time, in microseconds, it
       took from the start until the first byte	is received by	libcurl.  This
       includes	 CURLINFO_PRETRANSFER_TIME_T(3)	 and  also the time the	server
       needs to	calculate the result.

       When a redirect is followed, the	time from each request	is  added  to-
       gether.

       See also	the TIMES overview in the curl_easy_getinfo(3) man page.

	   curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");
	   res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
	   if(CURLE_OK == res) {
	     res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_STARTTRANSFER_TIME_T, &start);
	     if(CURLE_OK == res) {
	       printf("Time: %"	CURL_FORMAT_CURL_OFF_T ".%06ld", start / 1000000,
		      (long)(start % 1000000));
