Load timing and profiling tools (IE and FF) 1

[BabyJeffy]

If you ever get the itch to look into some performance profiling of your pages, here are a couple of links to Firefox plugins that I have found do a great job:

Life Of Request Info -

https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1743/

Tamper Data -

https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/966/

Tamper Data in particular allows you to profile the loading of individual assets that make up your page (css files, js files, imgs etc) and can show a time-line graph of all this information (ideal for spotting bottlenecks).

In the IE world:

TamperIE Web Security Tool -

Useful complimentary tools -

http://www.fiddlertool.com/fiddler/version.asp

I'm not trying to provide a complete list here... far from it (there are many such tools out there)... I just wanted to share the recommendation of those particular tools (after having used them).

Cheers,
Jeff
