I would also recommend JMeter's wiki for this one. There you will find links & references to resources useful that try to cover general concerns (regarding performance testing, industry "standards"/expectations, good approaches and also results interpretation). There aren't good quick answers, nothing "short" compensate for the experience of the people who wrote those materials.
But since that might take a while, as a quick answer I would add that it depends A LOT on the type of page that you want to load. And you also have to know your end-users expectations... - users quit if pages are slow, usually, but if the data is very valuable to them, they might wait (you see there's a lot to talk about, for news pages and a blog page they won't wait too many seconds, if their banking page take 20s they might wait, if someone wants a report with analytics, they will wait minutes for it to load in the web page). So don't generalise, just make sure you understand stakeholders and end-users expectations first and then balance that on what your developers can deliver realistically. You decide what is acceptable or not. For "industry standard", take a peek at the competition, see how they fair - try to beat that. --Adrian S On Wed, Aug 22, 2012 at 5:38 PM, Robin D.
