Jay Caines-Gooby a2357a6035 Just output the ttfb value for the basic option
-v option shows response breakdown for single and multiple requests

Also tidied README

# Shows time in seconds to first byte of a url or urls
#
# Based on a gist https://gist.github.com/sandeepraju/1f5fbdbdd89551ba7925abe2645f92b5

# Usage: ttfb [options] url [url...]
# -d debug
# -l <log file> (infers -d) log response headers. Defaults to ./curl.log
# -n <number> of times to test time to first byte
# -v verbose output. Show request breakdown during -n calls
#
# Examples:
#
# ttfb https://example.com/example/url
# .098974
#
# ttfb -n 5 https://example.com/
# .....
# fastest .099195 slowest .103138 median .099684
#
# ttfb -n 5 bbc.co.uk news.bbc.co.uk
# .....
# .....
# bbc.co.uk fastest .045873 slowest .046870 median .045999
# news.bbc.co.uk fastest .042286 slowest .060245 median .046035
#
# ttfb bbc.co.uk news.bbc.co.uk
# bbc.co.uk .048378
# news.bbc.co.uk .049303
#
# Implicitly follows redirects using curl's -L option.
#
# Log all response headers (default log file is ./curl.log) by calling with -d
#
# Override the default log file by specifying -l /some/file
#
# Get min, max and median values by specifying the number of times to call
# the URL; use -n2 for 2 tests, -n5 for 5 and so on.
#
# If you specify more than one url and have specified -d or -l, the log file
# will be prefixed with the URL being requested.
#
# If you specify -n and -d or -l, the response headers from the consecutive
# requests will be concatenated in the log file.
#
# See https://blog.cloudflare.com/a-question-of-timing/
# and https://curl.haxx.se/docs/manpage.html for an explanation
# of how the curl variables relate to the various stages of
# the transfer.
#
# To get a better approximation of devtool's TTFB, consider
# the time without the connection overhead:
# %{time_starttransfer} - %{time_appconnect}
#
# Uses a dirty eval to do the ttfb arithmetic. Depends
# on bc and column commands.
