performanceTimer

Class: com.microstrategy.web.app.taglibs.PerformanceTimerTag

Usage:

This custom tag is designed to be used together with the {@link LoggingTag} and {@link PerformanceStringTag}. It takes care of generating the required JavaScript code for being able to measure up the time a page takes for being rendered.
In the following example, the initialize action defines all the JavaScript methods and variables that will be required for the client rendering measurement to take place. The start action will generate the JavaScript required for starting the timer that will measure up the time the page will take in rendering. The performanceString tag will take care of stopping this timer and recording the results. The logTimes action will take care of enabling the whole logging feature in the JavaScript code, as well as recording the name of the page that will be analyzed: 
 <html>
   <web:performanceTimer action="initialize" runat="server" />
   <web:performanceTimer action="start" runat="server" />
   <body bgcolor="#ffffff" topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" onload="<web:performanceString runat="server" />">
     ...
     <script>
       <web:logging action="logTimes" runat="server" />
     </script>
     ...
   </body>
 </html>
