in reply to Monitoring my www traffic lag

Just as a side note, I find that far too many people are unduly impressed by large numbers of extra decimal points. Pull out Time::HiRes, and you, too, can be far more accurate than your error margin allows ;-)

I realise that in your case, your problem was solved, but in the future, some people may want to pull out the extra 5 or 6 decimal places just for overimpressiveness :-)

    I did consider Time::HiRes but thought it to be a bit overkill, since the lag was from 1 second to 90 seconds and around 1/3 of all requests failed. Of course if people require finer granularity they can substitute the timer :-)
