Description
A Long value that returns the total number of times that a new TCP level connection was established with web server(s) in the summary data. An excessively high number of TCP connects may indicate that HTTP persistent connections, also known as keep-alive connections, have not been correctly configured on the server.These long-lived HTTP sessions allow multiple requests to be send over the same TCP connection, and in some cases have been shown to result in an almost 50% speedup in latency times for HTML documents with lots of images.
