How can I monitor the page load speed of the Matomo dashboard?

Hello Matomo community,

I’m currently running a self-hosted Matomo instance and would like to keep track of its page performance, especially the loading time of the dashboard and other internal pages. Since Matomo requires authentication, I’m looking for a solution that can:

  • Measure the load time of the dashboard and selected pages

  • Run automatically at regular intervals (for example, every few minutes)

  • Notify me if the site becomes unavailable or if page load time increases unexpectedly

Does anyone know any free or reliable tools that could handle this kind of monitoring?

Any recommendations or real-world experiences would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Not really. Matomo is of course used to monitor your website performance but not itself. Are you finding it is slow? Or you have another issue with Matomo?

You could do it with Playwright (free), but you’ll have to code a script and then run it via cron. might be simple enough for your favorite AI…
