    Hi & welcome to Zabbix forums!

    If you're hosting that webserver and you have access/privileges to install a Zabbix agent or query SNMP on that host, then you should be able to get a pretty good idea of why it is slow.

    Unfortunately the difficult part would still remains to either get a decent template or to configure the items (that you want to monitor) yourself. Also, if it isn't slowing down drastically so that it would trigger an alert, then you'll have to know how to interpret all the item values that may be relevant.

    If you really don't know what the items means, you should still be able to view the graphs on all the items and be able to correlate it with the website loading times - and then when you spot a graph that changed in a similar fashion as the page loading times, then you've made progress into finding the reason...

    Zabbix isn't meant for monitor the element load times on the page, but it can monitor the page load time though.

      Is it possible, but you will need some effort. Yslow is available also as single js file, so you can use phantomjs for execution (see http://yslow.org/phantomjs/). But you will need integrate this measurements to Zabbix.

      I don't recommend you this concept. Pada mentioned that Zabbix is not meant for monitor the element load times on the page, but for the page load time.
