Abstract
Conducting web application performance tests through internet measurement platforms offers visibility into the web content availability and delivery performance from different regional vantage points. However, achieving this is challenged by the necessity of involving the web browser in conducting the web app performance experiment, which is difficult to achieve over the existing measurements endpoints. This study proposes a system design, MejHAR, that interfaces with the browser and forwards the traffic to measurement nodes to collect web page performance metrics at the vantage point. With the challenge of traffic visibility due to encryption and HTTP/2 multiplexing, the study suggests a mechanism to derive browser metrics from the exchanged traffic using a data analysis approach.
