Hello,
This seems very relevant to our discussion about mobile web performance. Jdrop: a way to gather data on the mobile device but analyze it remotely. Steve Sounders describes it well here: http://www.stevesouders.com/blog/2011
...
. A few other terms that David Calhoun mentioned in his talk are referenced here as well, including pcapperf, Mobile Perf bookmarkelet, and DOM Monster.
I put last night's deck on BOLT at http://matt.bo.lt/mobile-page-performance![]()

If you are interested in realtime page speed testing or server-side content routing, ping me. As I mentioned last night, we are seeing very large differences in mobile and non-mobile delivery speed when we do timings based on actual browsers.

I'll miss the talk, but will join you post 8pm for dinner/beers
