How to detect slow web page load and nofity user

Question

Google and Twitter, just to name a couple, have code in their pages that detects slow page load times, and presents the user with a nice message. I would like to implement something similar, and before I dig in and try to reverse-engineer their implementations, I was wondering if there are any existing components thay may help achieve this goal. (my search-fu failed me)

Thanks!

just an onload timer will do the job. stop the timer if page loaded completely. — Raptor, Apr 07 '12 at 08:45

Haven't seen any off the shelf libraries that do this, but isn't it really just loke an AJAX spinner but one that loads after a short delay?
