I use a combination of javascript ( Date.parse(new Date() ) will give you
milliseconds for client side round trip).  Server side use
System.currentTimeMillis() for measuring roundtrip and other internals such
as measuring Connections, database query times, et al.

It all then gets displayed in a separate browser window and updates upon
each client request.  Mostly use it for debugging.  Problem is that
Microsoft claims that their browser supports millisecond date functions but
it appears that it is only second accurate.  Still I find it useful and of
course the server side timings are accurate.

You don't need an applet which would just introduce additional overhead not
related to the timings?
