Tools of the trade : IBM Page Detailer

Filed under: Networking,Technology,Web — Vinay @ 9:59 pm

I discovered IBM Page Detailer, a tool to analyze web traffic between a client and a server in a graphical format, while listening to the brilliant Steve Sounder’s lecture on “Even Faster Web Sites” from the Google I/O 2008 conference. And credit goes to Ray for posting the list of videos from the Google I/O conference.

Am still playing around with this tool, but it looks like there is a lot of potential here. Rather than acting as a proxy, like most of the HTTP analyzers do, this tool actually places a probe in the clients network stack. And not to mention that it is free to use :) .

  1. Hey,

    Found the same tool after reading the book by Steve Sounder. Seems like a nice tool, however I’d like an app that’s firefox compliant and perhaps run on Linux as well.

    Saved your list of youtube vids for a rainy day :)

    Thanks!
