Install
This is the repository archive. It installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow.
Install straight from GitHub with WP-CLI:
wp plugin install https://github.com/dhilditch/super-speedy-performance-analysis/archive/refs/heads/main.zipUpdates itself. It ships its own updater (Plugin Update Checker), so new versions appear under Dashboard → Updates.
Free performance analysis for WordPress and WooCommerce. Finds which plugins are costing you SQL time, RAM and page speed, with evidence.
Description
Super Speedy Performance Analysis diagnoses your site's performance the way an expert would:
- Profiles your key pages (home, shop, archives, search, checkout, wp-admin lists and editors) with a lean built-in profiler - no Query Monitor install required, and zero overhead on normal traffic.
- Attributes SQL time, returned row counts, RAM and query counts to individual plugins and your theme.
- Presents plain-English insights: the slowest queries and who ran them, queries fetching hundreds of rows (the usual RAM culprits), plugins running queries in loops, blocking HTTP calls and more.
- Deep analysis isolates the real culprits by virtually disabling plugins for test requests only - your live visitors are never affected - and measures each suspect's true cost.
- Optionally share anonymised results with the community at superspeedy.org to help build an open database of plugin performance. You see the exact payload before anything is sent.
This plugin is free and open source, developed in the open at https://github.com/dhilditch/super-speedy-performance-analysis - issues and contributions welcome.
