Hi,
I have made some performance test of Astra Theme + Astra Pro + Elementor + Elementor Pro + Toolset Plugins.
I have installed a fresh wordpress site and installed the above mentioned plugins, and started to activate one by one to see where the site speed goes down and where i get more requests. please check attached files.
After the tests i can clearly see that Toolset plugins are heavy when installing all of them or big part of them. I think it would be great to change something about that so we can keep the site with high performance. please not that i just activated the plugins and still haven't created any content with them.
Toolset is not only a great plugin its awesome and have unlimited options and i am sure we can make it just better!
Thanks

Thanks Shane!
I can understand that sure. but it looks like that the requests number is increasing when activating toolset plugins too.
I have provided debug info.
Thats usually why we recommend the use of caching because it reduces the requests to the database. You have to remember that toolset makes requests to the database because majority of the settings are stored in the database.
In particular with views that makes requests from the database to display the list of posts.
You debug information checks out so no issues there.
Sure i understand this.
Is it possible to allow toolset to make requests only on specific pages? where really needed? because as you can see the site is with 0 content but the unnecessary requests are there! this will allow other pages to load with the normal speed where no toolset plugins are used. would be a great modification!
Unfortunately not but I did a clickthrough of your site and it runs fine to me.
Usually these speed test site give a good indication of what is slowing down the site as it scales. Your site is right at 0 for now in terms of scale since there is no content so the click through should yield no slowdowns at all.
I would like to see if adding content to your site will start to make it slowdown but as mentioned we recommend the use of caching if the site is going to be a large one.
