I have Varnish running and I wanted to see what http response codes commonly occur. I used:
varnishtop -i TxStatus
However, I am struggling to work out what the numbers on the left mean? Is it number of requests?
list length 7
1322.16 TxStatus 200
60.43 TxStatus 302
8.67 TxStatus 304
3.14 TxStatus 500
2.96 TxStatus 404
0.80 TxStatus 301
0.56 TxStatus 403
I tried a lot to find this, but never got the answer for this question. This is the only thing I found once.
It's an exponential decay of the frequency of arrival if I remember right, think of it as a "bogo-frequency".
More details from the writer of this tool can be found here.
