Plugin causing massive site load de

[Mark Vande Haar]

Upon investigation, I have determined that the Events Calendar plugin on my website performanceforhealth.com is causing the website load time to take 2-5 seconds per page. If I disable the plugin, the website loads lightning fast.
I ran an xdebug profiler on the website, and found that the crb_ec_generate_events_array, crb_ec_get_events_for_day, and crb_get_events_calendar_months are the 3 of the top 4 functions in my wordpress installation that are causing the most time to execute (see attachment)

Hi,

Thanks for using our plugins. I can try to help out here.

I looked at the information you provided and all 3 of those functions although event related are actually custom functions in your theme that interact with the Events Calendar.

So I am not sure there is anything we can work on to improve in our plugins in this instance to help you out.

It looks to be coming from a custom widget they developed. Are you using that widget? Are you able to contact the theme developer to see if they can help?

Do you have front end caching to help prevent the page from loading those functions every time?

Let me know and I can try to help out from here.

Cheers

Thank you for the quick response. I have found the issue to be one of the widgets built into the theme. I have replaced it with the widget built into the pro plugin and the site is functioning more smoothly.

I am glad to see you were able to work it out.

I am going to go ahead and close this ticket. If you have a similar issue or another in the future, please do not hesitate to create a new ticket.

Thanks!
