Setup metrics that you'd like to hit for your pages. When I was a kid putting up a fan site for games, (back on Geocities), I was mostly stuck on a 28.8k modem, and aimed to have it finish loading in 30s. Now, I was quite brutal in the compression and probably should have backed off a bit to avoid artifacts. It might be nice to have an automated test that the system under test limits the bandwidth and try to load your pages, and set some times that you'd like to hit.
