Unknown plugin overloading the server

  • Hey guys, I just heard from my hosting provider and they said my site is overloading their server RAM almost immediately after startup. They don’t know which plugin it is, and I have tried everything I know how to do. I am one version behind on WordPress and my theme because I don’t have time to run the manual updates. My hunch is that the overload is due to a plugin, but those are all up to date. I do have a lot of plugins though.

    Update: I ran the update manually for the WP install, so I’m now on 3.8.1. According to my Chrome RAM readout I’m still using >60MB which seems really high.

    That is a lot of plugins. You may want to checkout

    Plugin Profiler

    That can sometimes help you find the conflict.

    I just blogged about this here:
    WordPress Speed Tips

    If P3 Profiler does not help, you can try the divide and conquer approach or NewRelic. Newrelic is great but requires some server-side work.
