Plugins to monitor HTTP latency, page load times

[Alex Griffin]

As far as I know, netrc doesn't help with cookie-based authentication, 
which is what he was asking for. I'm sure there are plugins out there 
which handle cookies fine, but he'll need something like selenium for 
measuring browser rendering times. And if he's already using selenium he 
might as well use it for the authentication too.

(Also, I meant to say "It *can't* do" in my last email, rather than "It do")
