All major browsers allow you to profile each load time of every single resource. Perfect for trying to compare relative latency at a particular location for a particular CDN. Chrome'a is especially good for this sort of thing, look at "network" in the developer tools.
- noelwelsh 13y agoSure, I can test my latency, but I'm more interested in what my customers are experiencing. For instance, we have a big customer over in east Asia and I have very little idea what latency they get. When we were using Cloudfront a customer in Australia complained that they were seeing timeouts. It seems there was a bug in Amazon's routing table as Cloudfront has a POP in Sydney but their requests were going somewhere much further away.

- timothy89 13y agoI agree, I use it all the time for quick tests, but for a bit more accurate results other tools would be better IMHO :)
