Hi all,
I need a small favour; a person on a 56k line with firefox/opera (currently not IE compatible) to test the speed of a site.
Thanks for your time

No need mate
Web page loading speed tester:
http://www.websiteoptimization.com/services/analyze/
I've tried it on a couple of my sites, that I've manually worked out the download speeds for previously, and it seems pretty accurate.

Thanks I know the link and it isn't accurate for my case, I got 3 images in png of 6 kb each + CSS of 6 kb + html of 3kb + 2/3 gif for 5 kb + connection to a mysql base and the test give me a time of 1,36 seconds for a 56k wich is allmost impossible.
I suspect the test to count only images declared in the html and not in the css therefore it isn't accurate for me.
I know I should optimize my images but I like to have a reference to have a good quality/speed.

No, it gives you an avarage loading time for your entire site taking into account caching of graphics files + includes
Going on what you've said, a first time visitor would be downloading about 40Kb which gives a best case scenario of around 8 seconds. Realistically, it's likely to be 10 - 16 seconds.
Bearing in mind that the browser always downloads the html / php generated / whatever file first, the layout images and CSS sheet will be cached which means you only need to consider the html document filesizes and any additional graphics that they use.
That's how the site came up with 1.4 seconds; your site probably has a uniform layout with little extra graphics content between pages.
The MySQL conection must have been pretty good when you did the test, it can slow things down but that happens on broadband too anyway.
EDIT: Changed the numbers a bit, I can't add up properly

Allright thanks, it's currently real light in size cause I'm testing it first thus the question in this thread. I'm gonna do my math's for the other pages.
