Answer 1

This us the output from firebug. Every time you request a page, it displays the Timeline for each page component. You can disable browser cache if you like.

onload: at the last line is what you are seeking for.

The time from the start of the first request until the end of the last request is 1.11 seconds.
The time from the start of the first request until the load event is fired by the page is 1.12 seconds.

The last two entries are for the google analytics tag.

Firebug Net Panel Timings are explained very well here.

Answer 2

If you just want a snapshot of load-time on your browser, you might want to check out Google Page Speed

If you are looking to measure it from client (browser) perspective, you can use httpwatch
