Hello,
Firstly, I read some very positive feedback about the Newspaper theme and decided to acquire it.
We installed a new WordPress instance, migrated 4,000 posts to it on a VPN server with 32GB RAM and 8 cores, but we haven’t opened it to the public yet.
We also installed the wp-rocket plugin and set up Cloudflare.
My team, consisting of 6 people, is testing simultaneous navigation on the demo reels, which includes the mega menu in homepage. However, we noticed in our SSH terminal that HTOP is indicating 100% CPU usage.
We made some adjustments, such as caching some blocks, but the CPU usage remains too high. I’ve noticed that some major portals using the Newspaper theme are also experiencing this issue.
Is there any solution to work around this while keeping the mega menu?
Do you have any tips for us, given that we have a large portal? When we open it to the public, the expected monthly traffic is one million accesses per month.

Thank you!
Thnaks for send it.. But we still have high CPU usage
we currently working on a project that involves setting up a portal with an anticipated traffic of 1 million monthly visits and approximately 4,000 contents using the Reels demo from the Newspaper theme.
Our current VPN comprises 8 CPUs, and we exploring the possibility of doubling this capacity. I would greatly appreciate your guidance based on your existing big clients setups and their performance in real-world scenarios.
If you could provide insights into the satisfactory requirements for handling such a load, considering the specificities of the Newspaper theme and any relevant market cases you’ve encountered, it would be immensely helpful.
Best regards
Hello gomakeout,
Normally, you have to investigate and observe what consumes the resources. It can be an option, it can be because of requests to the database (most frequently, it happens from requests from the database), and it can be even from a website element or a plugin.
The first suggestion is to try a plugin for WP that changes the indexing method, improving query performance, for example, https://wordpress.org/plugins/index-wp-mysql-for-speed/
Also, the installation of a monitoring plugin (such as it is Query Monitor) and possibly the activation of the debug in the files, to determine what is consuming so many resources.
Thank you!
If you disable their plugins does it Rectify your problems? Like get rid of the cloud plugin. I’ve got the same problem.
Hi @jtoney,
Did you have tried the above suggestions?
