How do I see the postman response header?

next to the header name to get a description of the header according to the HTTP specification. If you send a HEAD request, Postman will show the Headers tab by default instead of the Body tab.

so start time is the time required to get the first byte of the response and download time is the time taken to fetch the full data.
