1. Webtrends or Analog
2. Are there pages without PHP coding? do they run slowly as well? If so, forget about PHP, then look at your server, is it also running slow in general. Are you running modules that you don't need and can remove. Also, in httpd.conf (or whatever it is called in your Dist.) have you set the prefered index/default files to look at (the less the better, otherwise apache will look for all of them - also make sure that you don't have index.html and index.php in the root of folders, just the php if that is what you are using and also add index.php before index.html in the preferred index/defaul page)? Are you running a lot of Aliases and Redirects? This will slow it down, see how you can minimise them.
3. Are the search conditions correct? Try minimising the search conditions (remove sorting etc) and see if it speeds up, then add one by one to see which one seems to cause it. OR, it could be the database itself.
4. neither, I prefer the ring around the... 馃槈
