High server CPU and memory usage

  • Beware! When www.remarpro.com warns you a plugin has not been tested with latest major release (5.4 in my case), or that it has not been maintained in over a year (five years at the time of writing), do not install it.

    Simply deactivating this plugin gave me a huge improvement on website performance. The CPU usage graph on my server dropped dramatically over the next few days.

    Before deactivating there was about 2.5 seconds to wait before each page would start to render. After deactivating the whole website was a dream to navigate.

    It’s astonishing that a seemingly simple plugin could cripple a website in such a way.

    Also, unless I’m mistake, the plugin appears to load an entire icon library for a single icon.
