This code snip says it takes about 36 seconds for download complete
require 'watir' # use watir gem
test_site = 'http://www.igindex.co.uk' # set a variable
ie = Watir::Browser.new # open the IE browser
ie.goto(test_site) # load url, go to site
ie.maximize()
sleep(2)
ie.bring_to_front()
puts ie.down_load_time.to_s
I assume you dont care if its complete, just that some object is
visible or exists?
