[Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] Nextgen not made for high traffic blogs? VERY high load

I loaded up our site and threw it up against YSlow. One of the areas that we are still failing is with Javascripts.

One of the tests is the JSLink Report. I tried to run this test and here is what it said:

51 problems found. JSLink stopped after analyzing 8% of the code because there were too many errors. The Javascript it’s referring to is the nextgen-gallery/shutter/shutter-reloaded.js?ver=1.3.0

Also, do you know if Gzip is enabled by default with Hyper Cache Phat? I read the developers page and it’s a little vague. I’m assuming it is as long that it’s also an option with the web host I’m using?

Btw… I installed Hyper Cache on another site that I manage with (8) 125 x 125 pixel ad buttons in a sidebar widget. Hyper Cache messed it up. Worked in Safari, but not Firefox or Internet Explorer.

I’m still testing it on the Portland Photographer blog, but thought that was interesting to note.

Hyper Cache update… installed on my personal photography blog site and it’s causing problems with my Greybox/Lightbox viewer…

Still trying to figure out the NextGen stuff on the other site…

Is it possible that using the Album function is a cause of high load?
I mean using Album instead of just a page that links to the individual galley pages? Is Album causing high MySQL requests?

I am having issues on a VPS with a 6000 visitors a day site with 3000 images in 30 galleries

We may be having a similar issue. We received a warning from our provider about CPU usage after installing this plugin. Has there been any resolution or info from the developer about this problem? I need to give a report to our provider by tomorrow.

jtcarroll8895 –> make sure that the cache plugin is also caching the gallery!

that solved my problem

We’re still having major issues with this plugin. I’m frustrated in trying to figure it out. I’m looking for advice in moving forward with this. Should I start a new thread or can I continue to discuss it here? I don’t want to ruffle any feathers or take the attention away from the original post topic.

At this point, I’d like to figure out how to turn off everything with this plugin we don’t use. A LITE version, if you will. We’re just using it to scale up JPG images when the visitor clicks the image, to make it larger.

If we decide to drop the use of this plugin, what is the best strategy to fix all the previous posts where this was in place? With 20 users, each person has their own image gallery. I’m assuming all of this would be totally messed up by deactivating this plugin.

I’m fairly new to NextGen and probably a WP newbie compared to most of you. I have some questions though. NextGen is really slow in my system – i.e. uploading images, editing images, etc. Is a cache plugin something I should consider or is there another solution for this? Thanks!

For the site I mentioned earlier, installing W3 Total Cache and a 256MB ram upgrade on the VPS (now has 1GB real memory, burstable to 1.3) has stabilized our issues for the time being…

I have the same problem, very high CPU load average. DO NOT use the random show style.
