View is very slow on loading

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
My View is very very slow on loading.
It has a few images in it only.

Solution:
The issue for this load time is usually due to Custom Image Sizes loaded in the View on the fly.

For example the ShortCode "[wpv-post-featured-image size="custom" width="400" height="283" crop="true"]".

Replace that ShortCode using the "Fields and Views" button and do not use a Custom Size.
Instead, use a predefined Size.

Then the problem will be gone.

If you miss some sizes apart of the default one, you can register a new Custom Size in your theme.

After you do that, all images that you upload to WordPress will have as well this new custom size.
That can then be picked to use with the ShortCode of the Featured Image or other images as well.

To update old existing images to use the new size as well, you can use plugins like this:

"If you change your above ShortCode to use a predefined size, 90% of the load time will be gone.
Or, you can register a new image size within your Theme so on upload, of new images, or regenerating the Thumbnails, those custom sizes do exist and hence will not force Views to generate them on the fly.

Each image displayed with custom size, may slow down your site by at least one second when this image should be displayed.
I recommend to not use Custom Sizes with this setup - instead use predefined sizes.

This will resolve the performance issue due to Toolset"

*can you please explain me need to do?

Yes, sure.

The issue for this load time is the ShortCode "[wpv-post-featured-image size="custom" width="400" height="283" crop="true"]".

Replace that ShortCode using the "Fields and Views" button, and do not use a Custom Size.
Instead, use a predefined Size.
