Very nice.

It would be nice if the source code of the page were not shown in a frame below though. That screen space is served better to show the rest of the actual diagram. You can already see the source code of a page with your browser, why waste screenspace and annoying extra scrollbars on that?

The intention was to make it really easy to play with the parameters (not that if you make a change to the html, it will be immediately reflected in the screen above).

If you have any suggestions, a pull request would be much appreciated! https://github.com/colin-scott/interactive_latencies

Oh, very interesting. You could add a button, though, to show the frame, or just hide it below the fold (increase the height of the visualization div). It's not like vertical space is a scarce resource, so you don't really need to hide it or to have the main div short.

Yep I like that suggestion, because indeed the customization thing is nice :)
