Show Slow is an open source tool that helps monitor various website performance metrics over time. It captures the results of YSlow and Page Speed rankings and graphs them, to help you understand how various changes to your site affect its performance.

Installation

Upgrading ShowSlow

To upgrade, run Subversion command:

svn update

and then from command line:

php dbupgrade.php

or just run

make

and both of these commands will be ran automatically.

ShowSlow uses DBUpgrade for schema upgrades which in turn uses MySQLi for DB connectivity which is not compiled into PHP by default so you'll have to enable/compile in MySQLi before being able to upgrade. If you're using MySQL 4.1.3 or later (and you should be by now), it's very much encouraged to use MySQLi.

ShowSlow demo

ShowSlow.com is a demonstration site that continuously measures the performance of a few reference web pages. It also allows for public metrics reporting.
