I don't think that slow performance comes from the Grafana or IBM APM Grafana plugin. Install Grafana server on the TEPS server or in the local network and access Grafana UI via fast network connection. Do not select more than 24h time range. If you need to query long time ranges and need better Grafana performance then itm_exporter and Prometheus may be a better solution for you. Also, read the Troubleshooting section and execute a similar request in the ITMRESTProvider web app in order to compare Grafana performance and direct ITM REST API request performance. If you see memory issues in TEPS eWAS logs, increase heap size: https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/resolving-teps-ewas-memory-issues-increasing-jvm-heap-size
