Monitoring webpage load time

Hi,

Is it possible to monitor how long it takes for a webpage to load? I am using the HTTP monitor but that only gives a response time of the server and not the time it takes to load the actual webpage.

Thanks

Hi,

SAM does not support to monitor a loading time of a complete web page. The HTTP Monitor measures the time it takes the HTTP GET request for the page referenced in the component monitor. Additional requests for other resources are not monitored.

SAM will measure how long it took for the page element to load. So in the case of a simple HTML file the response time measurement will be of how long it took for that one file to be downloaded, but not the other components that make up the page like GIF's, JPG's, Flash or CSS components. While you could create HTTP User Experience Monitors to monitor each page element that made up the page, what you're probably really looking for is found only in Web Performance Monitor.
