+.TH weblatency.d 1m "$Date:: 2007-08-05 #$" "USER COMMANDS"
+.SH NAME
+weblatency.d \- website latency statistics. Uses DTrace.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B weblatency.d
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This prints statistics for hostnames that browers have set GET requests
+for, in particular latency by hostname.
+
+The latency measured is from the browser sending the GET
+request to when the browser begins to recieve the response. It
+is an overall response time for the client, and encompasses
+connection speed delays, DNS lookups, proxy delays, and web server
+response time.
+
+This is written as an experimental tool, and may not work at all with
+your browser.
+
+Since this uses DTrace, only the root user or users with the
+dtrace_kernel privilege can run this command.
+.SH OS
+Solaris
+.SH STABILITY
+unstable - depends on browser implementation.
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.TP
+Print report after Ctrl-C is hit,

+AVGTIME(ms)

+to trace (currently set to "mozilla-bin").
