Why so complicated? When you can do:
var loadTime = window.performance.timing.domContentLoadedEventEnd- window.performance.timing.navigationStart;
If you need more times check out the window.performance object:
console.log(window.performance);
Will show you the timing object:
connectEnd Time when server connection is finished.
connectStart Time just before server connection begins.
domComplete Time just before document readiness completes.
domContentLoadedEventEnd Time after DOMContentLoaded event completes.
domContentLoadedEventStart Time just before DOMContentLoaded starts.
domInteractive Time just before readiness set to interactive.
domLoading Time just before readiness set to loading.
domainLookupEnd Time after domain name lookup.
domainLookupStart Time just before domain name lookup.
fetchStart Time when the resource starts being fetched.
loadEventEnd Time when the load event is complete.
loadEventStart Time just before the load event is fired.
navigationStart Time after the previous document begins unload.
redirectCount Number of redirects since the last non-redirect.
redirectEnd Time after last redirect response ends.
redirectStart Time of fetch that initiated a redirect.
requestStart Time just before a server request.
responseEnd Time after the end of a response or connection.
responseStart Time just before the start of a response.
timing Reference to a performance timing object.
navigation Reference to performance navigation object.
performance Reference to performance object for a window.
type Type of the last non-redirect navigation event.
unloadEventEnd Time after the previous document is unloaded.
unloadEventStart Time just before the unload event is fired.
