How Fast Your Web Page Loaded
Pingdom Tools is a free web tool to measure the speed of a web page loaded from a browser.
It mimics the way a page is loaded in a web browser by loading a complete HTML page including all objects (images, CSS, JavaScripts, RSS, Flash and frames/iframes). The load time of all objects will be shown visually with time bars.
