Find Slow Requests in Logs
If your log format includes response time, you can quickly surface slow requests and the endpoints causing them.
Before you start
- Ensure your log format includes response time.
- Use a consistent unit (seconds or ms).
- Test on a small sample first.
Workflow
- Open the log in GigaSieve.
- Filter or scan for high response times.
- Group by URI to find slow routes.
- Export a report for the backend team.
Tip
If response time is missing, update nginx log_format to include request_time.
