14 seconds on 400kbps dsl.

btw: it's not just the total size that will affect the load/rendering time.

- a page with lots of tables and lots of pics will take more time to render (especially on "older" pc's)...
- it will take more time to download 500 files of 10 kb each than to download 1 file of 5000 kb. (some browsers use persistent (keep-alive) connections, others reconnect for every file) (also most browsers limit the amount of connections to a server at the same time...)
