Plugin placing heavy load on server

[skepchick]

Hello!
I have Events Calendar Pro installed on a low-traffic subdomain as part of a very high-traffic website. After experiencing site slow-downs, our host investigated and found that ECP is one of two plugins we use that places a disproportionately heavy load on the server. Seeing as we just bought it and it does everything we need it to do, I don’t want to just remove it and move on. So what I’m wondering is, is this a known problem with the plugin? Is there a way to reduce the load on the server or optimize the plugin in some way?

Thanks!

Hi skepchick,

We are aware of areas in need of some amount of optimization (month view in particular) and are actively working on this to improve overall efficiency. In the meantime though if adding additional server resources isn’t practical we can really only suggest caching solutions to mitigate the load.

Future versions will hopefully see big improvements in this area, though, if you can hold tight 🙂

Good to know! Thanks for the response. I’ll see if we can keep things up and running until the next big update.

Excellent!
