This really has no direct relationship to the Google APIs, but it is an 
important subject in the development of any web app. That said, there are so 
many different variables in play when trying to gauge how long it will take for 
a page to load that it's very difficult to provide a truly concrete answer. 
Just a few of these include server load, network speed and traffic, client 
resources, and browser. So really, the best you can do is utilize tools to 
optimize your site's download and rendering. Tools like YSlow and PageSpeed, 
which are both plugins for Chrome and Firefox/Firebug, are of immense help in 
this area. You'll also want to add timers to your server-side scripts and such 
to identify any bottlenecks in the code which may be eliminated. The other day, 
I managed to net a 7x performance improvement in a single script by doing this 
and rethinking a major bottleneck in the script.
