Hello, I had been using the 30-day demo of version 6 up until today and had created 5 or 6 different tests. I had written down the results of each of them. After upgrading to a licensed copy and version 7 just this afternoon, my tests now have very different results when I use the Load Page Elements option. My assumption is that the new version is using the browser (IE) caching mechanism, whereas version 6 did not? I don't know if it will help any since you don't know exactly how my tests work, but here are the #'s:

V6
Time: 7:10
Pages: 134
Hits: 3258
KB Up: 2980
KB Down: 35704
Load Page Elements On
All Pages and Sessions (1 session) were successful.
Simulated Connection Speed: T1

V7
Time: 4:04
Pages: 134
Hits: 3258
KB Up: 3608
KB Down: 15086
Load Page Elements On
All Pages and Sessions (1 session) were successful.
Simulated Connection Speed: T1



Note that if I turn off the Load Page Elements option, my results are similar enough that they are acceptable without further explanation. It's only a comparison of Load Page Elements runs between V6 and V7 that concerned me. Thanks for any info you can offer.

I don't see any big difference between the two versions. I'd rather use the latest version if I were you.
