Using Julia & D3 to analyse web performance data

slides:none on file

Uses Julia and D3 to parse Boomerang web timing data, serialize rowwise JSON from DataFrames, and render per-browser histograms in iframes. A prototype with 250,000 circles hits DOM limits, switching to canvas becomes 100x faster. Buckets come from an IQR-based thresholder (about 25 interior bins plus outliers). Data flows via URL/postMessage or websocket (interact.JL) from Julia box to D3; multiple histograms are generated and compare distributions successfully.
