CURLINFO_SPEED_DOWNLOAD(3) curl_easy_getinfo options CURLINFO_SPEED_DOWNLOAD(3)

CURLINFO_SPEED_DOWNLOAD - get download speed

#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_getinfo(CURL *handle, CURLINFO_SPEED_DOWNLOAD,
                           double *speed);

Pass a pointer to a double to receive the average download speed that curl measured for the complete download. Measured in bytes/second.

CURLINFO_SPEED_DOWNLOAD_T(3) is a newer replacement that returns a more sensible variable type.

CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
  curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com");
  /* Perform the request */
  res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
  if(!res) {
    double speed;
    res = curl_easy_getinfo(curl, CURLINFO_SPEED_DOWNLOAD, &speed);
    if(!res) {
      printf("Download speed %.0f bytes/sec\n", ul);
    }
  }
}

Added in 7.4.1

Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not.
