This can help you see how your UI indicators, ajax loaders, etc., will operate in various network situations, unlike your local network which is generally free of any sort of interference.

These little snippets of code will freeze the execution of your web application for three seconds:

// PHP
sleep(3);

// .Net
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(3000);
