I did this

Made a POST request and tried to retrieve the value of CURLINFO_STARTTRANSFERTIME(_T).

I expected the following

The value returned should be greater than 0, CURLINFO_PRETRANSFER_TIME itself is greater than 0, so CURLINFO_STARTTRANSFERTIME must be too.

It is reproducible with the curl binary:

libcurl 7.65.3

curl -d "data data data" -w "lookup: %{time_namelookup}\nconnect: %{time_connect}\nappconnect: %{time_appconnect}\npretransfer: %{time_pretransfer}\nredirect: %{time_redirect}\nstarttransfer: %{time_starttransfer}\ntotal: %{time_total}\n" "http://requestbin.fullcontact.com/16dxjre1"

ok
lookup:        0,009254
connect:       0,035072
appconnect:    0,000000
pretransfer:   0,035231
redirect:      0,000000
starttransfer: 0,000000
total:         0,582735

It seems to work with a GET:

curl -w "lookup: %{time_namelookup}\nconnect: %{time_connect}\nappconnect: %{time_appconnect}\npretransfer: %{time_pretransfer}\nredirect: %{time_redirect}\nstarttransfer: %{time_starttransfer}\ntotal: %{time_total}\n" "http://requestbin.fullcontact.com/16dxjre1"

ok
lookup:        0,009284
connect:       0,032880
appconnect:    0,000000
pretransfer:   0,033062
redirect:      0,000000
starttransfer: 0,582286
total:         0,582642

The first version that this problem starts happening is 7.64.1, old libcurl version seems to work:

libcurl 7.64.1

ok
lookup:        0,034794
connect:       0,056868
appconnect:    0,000000
pretransfer:   0,057023
redirect:      0,000000
starttransfer: 0,000000
total:         0,874881

libcurl 7.64.0

ok
lookup:        0,008550
connect:       0,037006
appconnect:    0,000000
pretransfer:   0,037191
redirect:      0,000000
starttransfer: 0,574312
total:         0,574859

This was initially reported here JCMais/node-libcurl#183, so I suspect it's not platform-specific.

bisected to 65eb65f urldata: simplify bytecounters @bagder

curl/lib/transfer.c

Lines 638 to 643 in 521bbbe

if((k->bytecount == 0) && (k->writebytecount == 0)) {
Curl_pgrsTime(data, TIMER_STARTTRANSFER);
if(k->exp100 > EXP100_SEND_DATA)
/* set time stamp to compare with when waiting for the 100 */
k->start100 = Curl_now();
}

now that writebytecount is part of the request it's no longer 0 here so progress.t_starttransfer is never set
