What's the best way to see a webpage's speed in IE7+?

For Firefox, there's the Lori (Life-of-request info) plugin, that gives time to first byte, time to completion, file size and number of requests, all in the bottom of the browser window.

The closest I can think of is fiddler, but that gives a lot more info than I'm looking for and is somewhere extra to look. What other tools are there?

You can try to use http://www.webpagetest.org/test

I know it's not the ideal solution, but I don't know any plugin for this.

Would only work on sites in the "real world", nothing running locally or internally.

In all fairness, you didn't specify this!

HI

HTTPWatch is another tool which resembles fiddler.. there are 2 versions available professional and basic

i think basic edition may fit your needs.

Update:

I just came across a interesting post by john resig - deep tracing IE about the new client side profiler tool for IE. It is awsome & Its free.

You can get it here

Check Fiddler web debugger, which will give you what you are looking for and more.

Is there a way to see fiddler results inside IE i'm missing? Fiddler gives me too much info and I can't get to the value I'm interested in quickly. See OP.

yes, i know i just said fiddler as a reference, but i know it contains too much details, but personally i like it too much for simple and complex uses.

You want to use the neXpert addon for Fiddler: http://www.fiddler2.com/fiddler2/addons/nexpert.asp. It will generate a report for you summarizing your performance and provide tips for faster pages.

Furthermore, if you simply select all of the sessions and look at the "Statistics" tab, at the top, you'll find exactly the info you requested... session count, size, and timings.
