# Health Backlog

`GET /health/backlog`

Returns the number of HTTP requests currently in-flight on this uvicorn worker.

Use this to measure per-pod queue depth. A high value means the worker is
processing many concurrent requests — requests arriving now will have to wait
for the event loop to get to them, adding latency before LiteLLM even starts
its own timer.

## Response `200`

Successful Response
