Web App Tracing/Debugging

Question

Hi,

Can people pls suggest any open source tools that can be used to trace/monitor a persons web activity inorder to determine any code issues for a particular web app?

Basically, I have a web app that I have developed and some users are experiencing page stalls and was wondering on what the best way to track down these issues?

Thanks.

Enable the debug menu in Safari / Chrome, or install the firebug plug-in with FireFox. I've mostly used Safari; it gives both a timeline of what the page was waiting for, and a profiler for cpu utilization.
