For Google page speed is one of the signals for search engine ranking. If you keep this in consideration, you will be glad to know that Google chrome 6 developers can use web timing metrics to measure page loading time across different browsers.
“Measuring web page load time is a notoriously tricky but important endeavor. One of the most common challenges is simply getting a true start time. Historically, the earliest a web page could reliably begin measurement is when the browser begins to parse an HTML document (by marking a start time in a <script> block at the top of the document).” says Google software engineer Tony Gentilcore.
The engineer feels a lot of time is spent to fetch the page from the web server. So in order to get over this problem some web developers are storing the navigation start time in a cookie.
You can find this metrics under window webkit performance in your chrome 6. This without doubt is a great innovation by Google.
