Q: iMac OS X El Capitan, very slow

I have iMac 21.5-inch since mid 2011, it's running OS X El Capitan, it is running very slow especially on start and takes a long time for applications to start and shutdown, is there anything I can do to improve performance?

iMac, OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)

What all 3rd party extentions are you running?
