Is it possible to measure URL loading times with uberAgent?

Hi,

I'm using uerAgent at a customer, and they want to see URL loading times for different sites. I've found that there is something called «IO latency», which I don't know exactly what is, but it's only gathered from IE (not Chrome). Is there anywhere I can see URL loading times in general with uberAgent?

As of version 5.0, uberAgent determines page load duration and other web app performance metrics. This functionality requires a browser extension to be installed. Currently, a Chrome extension is available and an add-on for Internet Explorer is being developed. Extensions for Firefox and Edge are to follow suit.

The collected data is stored with the sourcetypes uberAgent:Application:BrowserPageLoads (page loads) and uberAgent:Application:BrowserWebRequests (background requests, e.g. XmlHttpRequests) (documentation).

Please see this blog article for more information.

IO latency refers to the duration of disk IO, by the way.
