Google's home page is very small, so it's not really a great test of
that. Here's a test downloading the first 512 bytes of an Ubuntu ISO
(beware of wrap):
$ python -m timeit -n1 -r1 "import urllib"
"urllib.urlopen('http://ubuntu.cs.utah.edu/releases/6.06/ubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-i386.iso').read(512)"
1 loops, best of 1: 596 msec per loop
