Determining Page Size

Hi

I am trying to determine the page size of pages in my portal, and am looking for an easy-to-use and reliable tool. The reason for this is so that I can fine tune my BI templates to be as small as possible, which should make for a faster user response.

I have tried running the pages in Firefox with the web developer toolbar, and get quite a large number (variable selection screen is 255kB), made up primarly of javascript files (205kB).

If I look at Page Info (from Firefox), it tells me around 3KB.

Internet Explorer doesn't seem able to tell me the page size (using the right-click menu)

IE's developer toolbar doesn't give me an option to see page size.

I can't use one of the online tools as the site is not available to the outside world.

All I'm looking for is a free, offline tool that I can use that analyses a pages and tells me how big the page is, and maybe even some detail like the size of individual elements, then I can see if it's worth me trying to reduce certain things.

Cheers,

Andrew

Hi,

it's not free but I use HTTPWatch - you can see the size of each request, ...

Or you can use firebug for firefox, which is completely free, and I think a lot better, as there are a lot more featured available within firebug

Hi

Firebug looks great, and is giving me some nice data.

All I have to do now is change my BI web template so that it works in Firefox ... seems like using images that are pulled from the MIME repository don't have the correct HTML rendered in Firefox

Cheers,

Andrew
