Chrome: In their continued pledge to speed up the web, Google's launched a new Chrome extension called Speed Tracer designed to help developers diagnose what's slowing down page loads.
Web developers have likely seen similar tools in the past—like the popular YSlow Firefox extension or Google's own Page Speed, but Speed Tracer offers a slightly different take, focusing on JavaScript execution in a way that the others don't. This isn't the kind of tool that regular old users would use, but it looks like a solid new tool for web developers.
Speed Tracer is a free download, currently works on Windows and Linux versions of Chrome.
