Hi, I have noticed since this week that my site became too slow for both admin area and frontend loading time was between 4-6 and now its at least 9-13 and sometime its stop loading and then continue after couple of second. very weird behaviour.
so after playing around with deactivating and activating plugins. i can confirm that Toolset Views Plugin is causing this issue. after deactivating the plugin the site began to load like before and bit better. For now i am going to activate it again maybe you can find out whats going on this is the link hidden link
please see attached image to see which plugins i am using. I think this issue followed after i updated to the latest version of Views. before that the website running nomraly without any issue.
Hello,
I have tried the URL you mentioned above in my Chrome browser, the total load time is 5 seconds, and the page load time is 4 seconds.
see screenshot load-time.JPG
I suggest you check these:
1) In the that URL, there is a view search form ( ID 8649 ), it seems that you are using AJAX search feature, please edit it,
in section "Custom Search Settings", enable option "Let me choose individual settings manually". choose option "Always show all values for inputs" , and test again
The option "Show only available options for each input" might conduct unexpected performance problem.
2) In section "Query Options", disable option "Don't include current page in query result",
Views cache feature will be disabled when it is enabled.
Here is a document about "How to Use Views Custom Search on Large Sites", for your reference:
