Hi,
I’m experiencing a major performance issue with my website when the XStore theme is active. As soon as I activate your theme, WordPress becomes noticeably slower and the server CPU usage increases a lot.

Can you please help me identify what’s causing this high load and how to reduce it?

Thank you.

Hello @Lantalau,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

We’re sorry to hear that you’re experiencing performance issues with your website when using the XStore theme. We understand how important website speed and server performance are, and we’re here to help you resolve this matter.

Here are some general recommendations:

memory_limit = 1024M post_max_size = 512M upload_max_filesize = 1024M max_execution_time = 3000 max_input_time = 3000 max_input_vars = 10000

Excessively high values may not necessarily improve performance and could potentially lead to resource management issues on your server. We recommend adjusting the values to more standard limits unless you have a specific need for higher settings.

If you are unsure about the optimal configuration for your hosting environment, we suggest consulting with your hosting provider or server administrator for tailored advice.

Also, we recommend the following general steps to help improve performance:

– Ensure that your theme and all plugins are updated to the latest versions.
– Use a caching plugin such as WP Rocket or W3 Total Cache.
– Optimize your images and database.
– Disable any unnecessary plugins to reduce load.
– Consider using a Content Delivery Network (CDN) to improve loading times.

Let us know how it goes!

Best Regards,
8Theme’s Team
