In the MySQL slow query log the MySQL server logs all queries, which took longer then a certain amount of time to complete (I think it's 1 or 2 seconds). This can help you see, if it is your database, which is slow (or probably something else).

To enable the MySQL slow query log, simply add the following line to the MySQL configuration file (my.cnf or my.ini), and then restart the MySQL server:

log-slow-queries

or

log-slow-queries = [path to the log file]

Replace [path to the log file] with the path to the slow query log file you want MySQL to write the log to.

Here is the MySQL manual. It has an overview of all available options.

Then edit a page, wait the time and check, if there is an entry in that log. Sidequestion: Are you responsible for the server yourself, or do you have someone, who normally does things like that for you?
