I use this function to produce a small speed test in my pages since I run my website from my home computers.
<?php
ob_start();
$StartTime=microtime(1);
?>
.. webpage data goes here ..
<?php
printf("%s seconds to produce (%skb/sec)",
microtime(1)-$StartTime,
Round((ob_get_length()/(microtime(1)-$StartTime))/1024));
ob_end_flush();
?>
Note: don't forget the "speed" depends on how quick the content is actually generated and not on the speed the data is sent to the client..
However it would be good to see such function to get the real speed. :)
