I doubt you will get any specs on chinese tubes, but RF excited lasers have rise times of less than 100uS and generally are much faster:
http://www.synrad.com/vseries/v30.htmNote that the chinese tubes use a different process and are much, much slower. Getting a decent 3d engrave at much more than 5-10% speed (Probably like 3-6in/min) is pretty much impossible.
Measuring this would be far more complicated than scoping the power supply since the tube will lase for a short period of time after excitation stops. You might be able to get a rough estimate by jogging sideways at high speed and pulsing the laser on thermal sensitive paper or something and see how the line tapers off.
I think fullspectrum has more info on exact specs since they measure all the tubes they sell (supposedly for fast rise/fall times = better engraving).
