# I was unhappy with curl not providing tcp connection details, redirect details, and DNS lookup details that all
# contribute to a slow HTTP call. So I wrote a script that made all the diagnostics from CURL in the ouput. 
# Input is just a valid URL. Output is all of the information about that HTTP transaction.
