Hi Alessandro, 

It is possible to track page load times with extra implementation. This blog post by Ben Gaines should help you get an idea on how to go about it https://blogs.adobe.com/digitalmarketing/analytics/measuring-site-speed-in-adobe-analytics/

Also, this discussion on stackoverflow can also serve as reference if you want to do it through DTM http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28710564/how-can-getloadtime-plugin-be-implemented-in-adobe-dtm

Let me know if that helps. Thanks!

As a Tealium user I would be very interested in any other ways that people are recording page load speed.

The Above solutions have never worked for us.

Hi, we have recently implemented this via Tealium following this documentation: https://docs.adobe.com/content/help/en/analytics/implementation/vars/plugins/getpageloadtime.html

Does the community know if there is a way to track at a more granular level than seconds? Like 10ths or better yet 100ths of a second?

At this point a second is to large of a number when we're trying to gauge success in our optimizations. Google Analytics has out of the box functionality to go to 100ths of a second.

Capture page load time in prop as mentioned in this article: https://theblog.adobe.com/measuring-site-speed-in-adobe-analytics/

s.prop1=s_getLoadTime();

 

This will assign the page load time, in tenths of a second, to prop1. For example, if my page took 3.75 seconds to load, I would get a raw value of 38 in the Page Load Time (prop1) report. So if you want to capture the page load time in seconds.

 

s.prop1=(s_getLoadTime()/10);
