Aha! Looking at several screen shots, I can confirm that the BLUE BAR includes the time "waiting" for an open slot in the X channels FF allows to open to one server, and is the bulk of what's going on. The right side "end" of each blue section corresponds to the right side "ending of the whole bar" for a request above. Oooh. I think I sent my previous comment to Honza direct. I apologize for clicking the wrong button if so. Or maybe it's in the queue to post. Anyway, I can now explain this in terms even Marketing will understand. :-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Firebug" group.
