Archived from groups: alt>www>webmaster (more info?)

I need to test something in a slow internet enviroment, such as from
overseas via a 28.8k modem, so is there any program to limit my PC at rate
of 28.8K (smooth)?

Ay? To the questioner: If you use Namo Webeditor it will estimate the download times for a page at various speeds between 9600 bps and 256K bps. Alternatively, you can try connecting with a modem and limit it's connection speed, and see how your pages load. Again this will only be an estimate, as you can never be sure what will happen along the chainwhat with ISP caches and network bottlenecks.

So I don't think anything of it! Seriously, I don't place my credence in these sort of tools. Bottom line is small pages load faster, faster loading pages are more agreeable to readers. My own gut feeling, and this will no doubt be countered, is to try and keep HTML pages below about 25 knytes. And before anyone says it, we are splitting down the pages in the encyclopaedia, but it takes a long time. Matt<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> >> Stay informed about: How to make internet connection slow?

I agree. But when it comes to download time for a page (including images and other stuff on it), it can't be worse than anything else. As you say, it can only be an estimate. Can you estimate the size and download time for your pages, with the ads included? -- Arne<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> >> Stay informed about: How to make internet connection slow?

Okay, it's a bit "buy our services" orientated, but a useful tool - I bookmarked it. With Namo Webeditor it does count all included adverts, but of course they are dynamic and come from a separate server, so I tend to look at the commerical versions of the pages, which are advert free (and available to buy....<G>) Matt<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> >> Stay informed about: How to make internet connection slow?
