“RE: How Fast is My Home Page?”

Tot: 863
Ave: 172
Min: 150
Max: 230

It looks like on average about 3 seconds.

Pinging truerwords.net averages around 37ms (60 max, 30 min), so it's not particularly the network.

p.s here's the tester:

on loadTest (url, howmany=5) {
	local {
		urllist;
		totaltc;
		tc;
		elapsedtc;
		maxtc=0;
		mintc=infinity;
		result;
		port=80;
		server};
	urllist=string.urlsplit(url);
	server=urllist [2];
	if string.patternmatch(":", urllist [2])>1 {
		port=string.nthfield(urllist [2], ":", 2);
		server=string.nthfield(urllist [2], ":", 1)};
	totaltc=clock.ticks();
	for i = 1 to howmany {
		tc=clock.ticks();
		tcp.httpClient(server:server, path:urllist [3], port:port);
		elapsedtc=clock.ticks()-tc;
		if (elapsedtc > maxtc) {
			maxtc = elapsedtc};
		if (elapsedtc < mintc) {
			mintc = elapsedtc}};
	totaltc = (clock.ticks() - totaltc);
	result = "-> Tot: " + totaltc + "tAve: " + totaltc/howmany + "tMin: " + mintc + "tMax: " + maxtc;
	clipboard.put(stringType,@result);
	dialog.alert(result)};
