Chrome Emulation vs. WebPageTest

Is there a way to see the elapsed emulation time using Chrome’s page emulator, or is this not possible.

Page loading time results seem to differ between Chrome tools and something like webpagetest. PageSpeedInsights just gives a score.

I’d like to get to the bottom of this because:

I made a carousel using SVG images. ISlider

The module weighs about 300kb, and renders in Chrome less than 3 secs, but I prefered the images I had before, bringing it up to about 1.5MB.

I am starting to think it’s a misconception that SVG images should be as small as possible, relative to the context of the website.

On the other hand, according to WebPageTest the page took an initial 7 seconds to render with the IPhone 4.
