Is there a YSlow-like tool for IE7?

I love YSlow for Firebug/Firefox, but I've hit a situation where I want to profile an HTTPS site, that doesn't physically work outside of IE6/7 (e.g. no IE8, no Firefox, no Chrome)

Fixing the site to work in all browsers is officially Step #1, but to do some analysis and benchmark the existing site (which will help in reporting overall goal achievement) I really need to be able to profile the existing site.

In particular the info I'm looking for is:

  1. Overall page speed
  2. Static content (what images, css, js files) are cached, minimized, gzipped
  3. Counts/locations of slow CSS (e.g. usage of CSS Expressions)
  4. Cookie info
  5. Image sizes
  6. Duplicate scripts/css
  7. File sizes etc.

Without a specific do-all tool, are there specific tools that will help me solve part(s) of the puzzle.

e.g.

Using the above I can extract most of the info and then tally up my own "score"/checklist of things that need attention however it is a fair amount of work. :-(

Does anyone have some better tools for this? Is there a YSlow-like tool for IE7??

You Can Run Yslow In Internet Explorer

All You Need To Do Is:

  1. Click Here (Using IE)
  2. Scroll Down To 'Desktop Bookmarklet Installation Instructions'
  3. Right Click The Blue Rectangle Reading 'YSlow' & Then Add To Favourites

Now You Have YSlow In Your Favourites, Go To The Webpage You Want To Test &

Click YSlow From Your Favourites Menu To Run The Test.

UPDATE: The YSLOW Bookmarklet has not been updated by the YSLOW team and as of June 2016 does not work in IE11

Charles Web Proxy has a yslow like feature built in. It works with IE. It is shareware and costs $50 to purchase.

Have a look at dynaTrace AJAX. Works with IE and should give you most of the info you're wanting.
