Looking up the page, and getting a timeout would be a good indicator,
I should think.

Anyway, we use a little nagios plugin from Gocept, get it from their SVN at:

  http://svn.gocept.com/repos/gocept/ZNagios/trunk/

(viewcvs view at: http://svn.gocept.com/viewcvs/ZNagios/trunk/)

It let's us also monitor database size, reference count and the error log.
