Pass a pointer to a double to receive the time, in seconds, it took from the start until the first byte is received by libcurl. This includes CURLINFO_PRETRANSFER_TIME(3) and also the time the server needs to calculate the result.
When a redirect is followed, the time from each request is added together.
See also the TIMES overview in the curl_easy_getinfo(3) man page.
