If you're building a website like facebook, ask one of your few hundred programmers, maketers, etc. – Daisetsu Jul 1 '10 at 20:44

@Daisetsu, really? Not a useful comment at all. @Enrique The second half of your question is off-topic according to the site FAQ. Please consider editing it out of the question. – heavyd Jul 1 '10 at 21:19

I'm not 100% sure what you're after, but if you want to know how much a web browser needs to download to view one of your webpages, then check out yslow, a firefox add-on that works with the excellent firebug. That will show you in a nice graphical way how much is downloaded, how that's split up into different files, and the difference between when your cache is primed and empty.

I should mention that Chrome has this functionality built-in with its Developer tools. – digitxp Aug 25 '10 at 4:00
