Can we also log when the domready event and the onload event of the page
happens relative to the click on the thumbnail? As I mentioned in the
thread about slow loading [1], we have a problem on slow connections with
pages that contain lots of thumbnails, and it would be nice to know how
widespread an issue this is. The simplest way I can think of to measure
this sort of performance problem is to compare the time passed from click
to thumbnail display and the time passed from click to page onload event.
