Although personally I think that telnet-to-port-80 would be a better
idea, in this case when you're trying to check what is outputted
first. Either that or a TCP sniffer.
I also agree with the microtime() suggestion, mentioned below. It will
get you around the problem of caches - which is a major problem for
something like this. I'm not sure what the situation with apache is
regarding caches.

Unless you didn't understand what he said and want clarification.
