[Icecast] Many short connections less than 1 second

Wed Feb 23 20:11:06 UTC 2022

Hi Tony,

if that would be the case, should than these connections  not always repeating with the same time difference?

Here are some examples:

0 => 2022-02-22 06:53:30
1 => 2022-02-22 06:53:30
2 => 2022-02-22 06:53:35
3 => 2022-02-22 07:57:10
4 => 2022-02-22 07:57:10
5 => 2022-02-22 07:57:11
6 => 2022-02-22 17:59:13
7 => 2022-02-22 17:59:13
8 => 2022-02-22 17:59:14
9 => 2022-02-22 21:49:07

This one is doing it 3 times in a row!

0 => 2022-02-22 03:46:13
1 => 2022-02-22 04:17:55
2 => 2022-02-22 04:43:22
3 => 2022-02-22 09:26:03
4 => 2022-02-22 12:25:48
5 => 2022-02-22 14:23:02
6 => 2022-02-22 18:21:52
7 => 2022-02-22 23:01:03
But this one only once in a while!

Has anybody seen something like that, too?

Regards,

Hans-Georg

Some of these may be stats programs reading the state of the streams or the PHP for players connecting to read the metadata to display.

Hi Chris,

I agree that it looks very strange, that line 1 has a different software than 3 and 4.

Some software is trying to have more than one connection on the beginning, but not several very short ones.

And as I know, there are no stable connections and short connection at the same time.

Regards,

Hans-Georg

Is it possible their listening software has some kind of local buffer

and they

are just keeping it full?

Is there any benefit to having lots of short overlapping connections

rather than

one solid connection?

Having Line 1 be a different software than lines 3 and 4 is kind of odd.
