They're showing a data dump of what the tool does. I can't follow this part at all. I'm sure it means something to them, though. :-)
by dewey (moderator) @ -

Horiz. bars are indiv. web page elements; time goes left-to-right, so width of a bar shows how long that page element takes to render.
by dewey (moderator) @ -

Just uploaded a screenshot of the tool. What you're seeing is it graphing the perf of one web page being loaded.
by dewey (moderator) @ -

They built a rule that looks for "myspacecdn.com" or "myspace.com", to see how MySpace-friendly a page is, just for fun.

Funky: you can define your own validation rules to apply to any page that MSFast analyzes.
by dewey (moderator) @ -

Looking at code in MSFT Visual Studio: the source code for the MSFast perf analyzer.
by dewey (moderator) @ -

They also have a validation system: can analyze a page and show parts of the page that are behaving badly (deprecated domains, etc.)
by dewey (moderator) @ -

Wow, pretty cool: the tool shows before & after (visually) for each segment of the page that loads.
by dewey (moderator) @ -

x-axis is time elapsed as the page loads. graph shows CPU load over time, browser memory usage, and load time for each page component.
