Hi,

I have a web page that has a Google Map with 20 custom overlays.
I want to measure the page loading time to see if the custom tile
overlays cause a significant increase in the loading time.

I checked it with web-based website timers (http://webwait.com/ and
http://www.websiteoptimization.com/). I also tested it with a simple
Javascript code (loadTime = startTime - endTime) that sets the
startTime at the beginning of the .html code and the endTime at the
end.

However, they all show the loading times of the two cases (w/ and w/o
overlays) almost the same. Strange thing is that they show the loading
time of the page w/ overlays before the rendering of the overlay tiles
is completed.

Do anyone know how to properly measure the loading time of the Google
Maps with overlays? Do the browsers (1) load the tiles first and (2)
render them later, and they consider only (1) as the web page loading
time? If so, is there any way to measure (2), the tile rendering time?

Thanks in advance.
