I briefly mentioned how I've been using Watir in a blog post today - "The 
Jury’s Still Out on OpenSTA" (http://tejasconsulting.com/blog/?p=74).

I'd be glad to elaborate on Watir's role in the toolchain, and discuss the 
necessity of using a browser-based test tool for single-user performance 
testing rather than a load test tool that does browser simulation.  I'm testing 
a web application that uses Javascript heavily, so measuring the impact of the 
Javascript execution time is important.  I was using Ruby and Squid to get 
low-level single-user inter-page timings, which a Perl script then used to edit 
the OpenSTA SCL code.

Is anyone else using Watir for performance testing?
