Hi,

This is the time elapsed in seconds

Quote:

The native format for Squid

The format is:

time elapsed remotehost code/status bytes method URL rfc931 peerstatus/peerhost type

Using

Code:

perl -p -e 's/^([0-9]*)/"[".localtime($1)."]"/e' <access.log

you can parse the log file nad convert time to human readable.
To use a more convenient logging, have a look at logformat directive.

Regards
