mod_arm provides a simple, seamless, and application independent interface to ARM (Application Response Measurement).

mod_arm allows system administrators to get an accurate idea of how long an application takes on a running server - for a single instance or as a step in a multi-tier transaction. This is definitely a work in progress.

Configuration Directives

Syntax: Arm state
When state is on, ARM measurements will be taken for this directory
When state is application, ARM measurements will be controlled by the application scripting language such as PHP (not yet implemented)
When state is off, no measurements are taken for this directory
