WP-Optimize actually slows down your site

    Hi,

    the plugin checks if a premium version is installed, and it does this by scanning all plugins you currently have in your plugins folder.
    Function WP_Optimize::is_installed() calls get_plugins(), and if no persistent Object Cache is installed, this blocks your server response on every request (Page, Admin, AJAX, REST), by up to 200 ms.

    Devs, please fix this.
    Thank you!

    Hi,

    Thanks for the report. In my testing, I could only get that sort of result on an unvisited site with cold disk caches. However, I agree that the method is written rather inefficiently, and it’s been rewritten for our next release to not use get_plugins() or anything equivalent to it (no scanning of the plugins folder). Thanks again!

    David
