TCP Connection Reuse Keep-Alive Benefit Calculator

Calculate the latency and throughput benefit from TCP connection reuse via HTTP keep-alive versus per-request connection establishment. Model the break-even request count where keep-alive overhead is recovered.

How It Works

Calculate the latency and throughput benefit from TCP connection reuse via HTTP keep-alive versus per-request connection establishment. Model the break-even request count where keep-alive overhead is recovered

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • TCP connection reuse via HTTP keep-alive versus per-request connection establishment — The tcp connection reuse via http keep-alive versus per-request connection establishment recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the tcp keep-alive benefit result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the TCP connection reuse via HTTP keep-alive versus per-request connection establishment for the scenario you are assessing. Calculate the latency and throughput benefit from TCP connection reuse via HTTP keep-alive versus per-request connection establishment. Model the break-even request count where keep-alive overhead is recovered. Use the tcp keep-alive benefit result to inform your calculation.
