Curl Website Traffic February 2025

Data with no logs are definitely traveling openly for the pursuits.
I quickly see what is curl.se Website traffic status is like today. Just as a curiosity.
Disclaim: We will not log visitors to everyone’s websiteWe will not run on any web analytics on site so we don’t know much of who do what is on site. It is made for privacy reasons, but also for practical reasons. Managing logs for this setup is the job I can avoid doing and pay.
What is we have, a website hosted (frankly) by quickly on their CDN network, and as part of the setup has an admin interface to remove stored traffic data. We’ve got some numbers, but without details and details.
Bandwidth
Within the last month, site served 62.95 TB. It makes it common 2tb / day. At the most active day at the time it was expelled 3.41 TB.

Requests
on 12.43 Billions of requests, it makes an average transfer size of the request 5568 Bytes.
Downloads
Because we don’t have logs, we can’t count the perfect download curl. But we have statistics for the quantity of things that are different from the site, and in the category 1MB-10MB we first have tarbled.
1.12 Million items were downloaded last month. 37,000 Downloads every day, or part of a curl tarball downloaded each other second to the whole clock.
Of course most curl users never download it from curl.se. The source archives also offered from Github.com and users typically download the curl from their distro or get it installed on their operating system and so on.
But …?
The average curl tarball size from the last 22 releases 4,182,317 Bytes. 3.99 MB.
1.12 million x 3.99 MB is only 4,362 Gigabytes. At least ten percent of the overall traffic.
Although we consider the average size of zip archives from recent release, 6,603,978 bytes, it just makes 6,888 Gigabytes in general. Away from nearly 63 terabytes total amount.
This, accompanied by low-size transfer per request, as indicates that other goods are transferred to the site with somewhat severe volumes.
Offload source
99.77% In all requests CDN served without reaching the source site. I think this is one of our benefits most of a static site without cookies and dynamic choices. We are allowed to obtain a high level of cache hits and the content served directly from CDN servers, leaving our source lander.
Regions
Quickly a CDN with access to points distributed worldwide, and the curl website has any theory that users access users. In the same region. If we think about these acts, we can see from which most traffic to the curl website comes from.
Top-3:
- North America – 48% of Bandwidth
- Europe – 24%
- Asia – 22%
Tls
Now I’m not the expert on how exactly the TLS protocol negotiation is easy to act, so I think a little here.
It is to strike that 99% In traffic using TLS 1.2. It seems that a large amount of its amount is not based on the browser, as all popular browsers today are negotiating TLS 1.3.
Http
It seems to be the approval of my analysis of TLS, the distribution of HTTP version as well as focuses on large amounts of traffic not people in front of browsers. They prefer HTTP / 3 these days, and if that’s why they use the problems they use at HTTP / 2.
98.8% In the curl.se traffic uses HTTP / 1, 1.1% Use HTTP / 2 and the remaining little part less 0.1% HTTP / 3 is used.
Downloads by curl?
I don’t know how big about downloads is actually done using the curl. A fair feature is what I think. TLS + HTTP data means a large amount of bot traffic, but modern versions of Curl at least select HTTP / 2 unless users use it to never be selected.
What is all in traffic?
Then, we saw Severe amount of traffic from China download to Ca Cert Store We provide, but these days load traffic seems fairly similarly distributed all over the world. And over time.
According to stats, items in 100KB-1MB range download 207.31 million times. That’s greater than our site images and smaller with curl downloads. Exactly the range for CA cert PEM. The most recent one of 247kb. Suit the reasoning.
A 247 KB file downloaded 207 million times equal to 46 TB. Maybe that’s the explanation?
