To test the performance of a web client, I did it in 3 categories: PLT, TET and BRU.

The PLT is for Page Load Time. It's determined by source file size and the network bandwidth. And more important, the execution of client side javascripts.

The TET is for Transaction Execution Time. It's the metric of the server side processing speed. The difference between PLT and TET is obvious but tricky. They are always mixed together if you cannot test them properly. Actually, you need only keep one point in your mind when you think about TET - it's a kind of testing on Server indeed. But it will impact the performance and user experience of client users.

The BRU is for Browser Resource Usage. It's to measure the RAM and CPU usage by the client side browser process.
