Web service error - is it a browser?

I have a legacy CGI web service that returns XML. I have added a timestamp entry for various method calls within the service and it completes within a few seconds.

However, due to the amount of XML returned, it takes about 15 seconds for this browser to render.

I understand what's going on, but other people don't. Is there some tool / add-on that I can use to SHOW where the speed issue is and what's not in the WebService?

thanks

An easy solution to validate the browser is not to use the browser and show it exits after 2 seconds - use wget or something similar. You can even link to the service and right click -> save target as. Either way, you're taking rendering out of the equation.



Alternatively, the YSlow firefox addon will mark different load points, although I'm not sure if this works for XML files.

Use Fiddler to display the server response time, which is located under the Performance Statistics tab.

You can try firebug web bar for Firefox to show / measure page load speed. Or, as Greg said, just use wget.
