Why measure connectEnd?

When you are measuring a network connection, it is helpful to seperate the connection itself from the request / response.

Establishing a connection vs using a connection

The connection event and a request / response event are different and connect start helps us measure the establishment of a connection rather than the use of a connection.

connectstart, connectend, and requeststart

The metric connectEnd 1 allows us to measure the end of the TCP connection time (the establishing of a connection).

What timings are found with connectEnd?

connectstart, secureconnectionstart and connectend

When connectEnd is combined with the connectStart event the entire TCP connection time can be measured.

When connectEnd is combined with the secureConnectionStart event the entire SSL handshake connection time can be measured.
