Cool, it works quite well. Get the feeling it's being hammered though, with 500ms GETs in the UK for a Dutch site (would expect 40ms) and 24000ms pageloads (onready; simulated browser; costs quite a few resources). It randomly works well though, giving accurate results I mean. Overall they seem representative.
What I found very interesting is the dns test. My personal blog loads in just over a second in south america (hosted at home in the Netherlands), makes sense. DNS however is as fast in south America as here! I guess someone visited the site and it got cached. Other places, e.g. India, gave normal results (i.e. what you'd expect, limited by the speed of light), no recent visitors there I guess.
