Time to start browser

To see how long it takes a browser to start.

Create this file. Name it How_Long.html
Substitute location of file with your location.

To run it...

seamonkey "file:////home/andy/bin/How_Long.html?startTime=$(date +%s%N | cut -b1-13)"


<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
var readyMillis = new Date().getTime();
var startMillis = new URL(window.location.href).searchParams.get("startTime");
document.write("Started at: " + startMillis + "<br>Ready at: " + readyMillis + "<br>Time elapsed: " + (readyMillis - startMillis) + "ms");
</script>
</head>
</html>

I was curious as to whether FF or Seamonkey was fastest.

SM was a little faster.
