About:
alp is a high-performance access log profiler designed to analyze HTTP server logs. It efficiently aggregates and summarizes log data to identify performance bottlenecks and slow requests. The tool helps developers optimize web applications by highlighting problematic endpoints and request patterns.

Key Features:

Fast log parsing and aggregation
Support for multiple log formats (JSON, Apache, Nginx)
Sort and filter by various metrics (latency, count, size)
Output to terminal or JSON for further processing

Use Cases:

Identifying slow API endpoints in production
Analyzing web server traffic patterns
Performance tuning and bottleneck detection

Alternatives:

goaccess – Provides real-time visual reports, while alp focuses on CLI-based aggregation and sorting.
awk/sed – Standard Unix tools for log parsing, but alp offers a specialized, faster solution for profiling.
