    Hi,
    I am using TranslatePress to translate my website from English to Arabic. And I’m using DIVI theme.
    Every thing is working great. But the only problem I am facing now is my website loading time on phone and tablet. It is way to slow, When I deactivate TranslatePress, my website loads in around 2 seconds, But when I activate it it loads in 12-13 seconds, its crazy slow, its like killing my website.

    In desktop, everything is working fine, my problem is only in phone and tablet view.

    I tried many WordPress translation plugins, I just can’t find a better one than TranslatePress. and if I did, I wouldn’t write this.

    Please help.

    Regards.

    Hello,

    What could cause issues is the fact that TranslatePress does require more memory to process the translation of a page. And it slows down if there is more HTML on a page.
    Our plugin needs to parse the entire HTML of a page in order to serve translations, so it can be memory intensive. But it usually doesn’t impact speed loading times and you can also cache translated pages, in which case they shouldn’t be processed by PHP at all.

    We highly recommend using a caching plugin. Cached pages are not processed on every page load. TranslatePress can be resource intensive with large pages, but it depends on how much HTML content there is on one page.

    Automatic translation will slow the page down on the first load, so the PHP will wait for the translations and then show the page. This only happens once or if you add/change strings.
    You could check if you have duplicate entries in your database. If you have, you can use the Remove duplicate rows option from TP Settings –> Advanced tab to clear them.

    Disabling the translation of gettext strings could also improve your page speed – more information regarding this mini-addon can be found in our documentation:https://translatepress.com/docs/developers/disable-translation-of-gettext-strings/

    Please let me know if any of the provided suggestions worked in your case.

    Best regards,
