If you open Opera Dragonfly again it should just work. It uses AppCache so downloads in the background and should be ready the next time you open it.

No, I meant toolbar with buttons: "Open/Close Opera Dragonfly", "Switch UA", "Validate",...

To get the total page load time I would have add each individual item. The old interface gave you a total. Missing the old interface for this feature. Other than this Dragonfly 1.0 is nice.

How long did it take? Who knows?

The older interface did a better job of displaying this information.

Maxim, that's an experimental toolbar we've been playing with; it's not available yet.
