I appreciate the responses and updated the article with links to your comments. I've been very impressed by what I've seen so far!

I was going to include Google Analytics site speed data, but it seemed less accurate than NewRelic's Real User Monitoring.

What seemed less accurate? They should be doing almost exactly the same thing.

Google Analytics site speed data is only based on 1%[1] of your traffic while New Relic's Real User Monitoring aims to track all of your traffic. I'm sure that can lead to differences in accuracy.

Provided you have enough traffic, sampling shouldn't affect the results in any meaningful way.
