- Logstalgia is a website traffic visualization that replays or streams
- Apache web-server access logs as a pong-like battle between the web
- server and an never ending torrent of requests.
- Requests appear as colored balls (the same color as the host) which
- travel across the screen to arrive at the requested location. Successful
- requests are hit by the paddle while unsuccessful ones (eg 404 - File
- Not Found) are missed and pass through.
- The paths of requests are summarized within the available space by
- identifying common path prefixes. Related paths are grouped together
- under headings. For instance, by default paths ending in png, gif or jpg
- are grouped under the heading Images. Paths that don't match any of the
- specified groups are lumped together under a Miscellaneous section.
