In TC 7.0.8 and later:

The start time:
= when org.apache.coyote.Request#setStartTime() is called

That is done by processors. Some initial processing is already done at
that point (e.g. reading the request line).

The end time:
= when org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter#service() calls logAccess(..)

That is done when service() completes processing the request. At that
point the content is already generated and response.finishResponse()
is already called (which closes output buffer and writes remaining
data to the socket).

After that Tomcat performs cleaning of its internal state and is ready
to process next request.

I am not sure what you mean by "teardown".


A correction: I wrote:

That is not true. With %t the AccessLogValve still prints the current
time when logging is performed, not when processing was started.
(There was a patch discussed on dev@ to change the behaviour, but it
has not been applied yet).
