Via Ajaxian, interesting browser behavior:

-----
Safari does not fire onload at the same time as other browsers. With most 
browsers, they will wait until the page is loaded, all images and stylesheets 
and scripts have run, and the page has been displayed before they fire onload. 
Safari does not.

In Safari, it seems onload fires before the page has been displayed, before 
layout has been calculated, before any costly reflows have taken place. It 
fires before images have completed loading (this can also happen in rare cases 
in Opera, but Safari seems to do it everywhere), meaning that a substantial 
part of the load time is not included.
