[Assigned] very slow

Hi there,

Thank you for the access details.

with WPML activated load time for me was around 17s-20s (I do few loads with caching disable)

Deactivating all WPML + WPML add-ons

15s - 20s

6 second increase 21s with WPML activated

After running some troubleshooting actions I have been getting readings around 14-17s.

While I do see some performance increase, it has been inconsistent, meaning that even without WPML I am noticing significant issues.

______________________________________

Reviewing the performance profile in the browser it strongly suggests render-blocking JavaScript and delayed execution

In the screenshot below you can see al these loading at the same time with each script taking around 5.2s

elements-handlers.min.js

frontend.min.js (appears multiple times)

elementor-admin-bar.min.js

add-to-cart.min.js

wcml-multi-currency.min.js

hoverintent-js

underscore.min.js

sourcebuster.min.js

WooCommerce & preorder scripts

Webpack runtime bundles

I recommend trying:

1. Go to WP Rocket -> File Optimization->JavaScript Files -> Delay Javascript Execution

2. WP Rocket -> Advanced Rules -> Add these URLs to never cache
/cart/
/checkout/
/my-account/

_____________________________________

In wp-config.php the following set up is added:

define( 'WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '16384M' );

ini_set('memory_limit', '-1');

this can cause high load situations and hide the real problem.

Reviewing the debug log I see the following Fatal Errors:

These point to the Child theme as well as Elementor.

Is there a possibility to test WPML on your site with minimal environment? Do you have a staging site where we could reproduce this performance issue and test with minimal environment to ensure that WPML is indeed causing performance issues.
