Since last update, the site is very slow

Hi,

Since I’ve updated the theme to the latest version (6.7), the site is so slow and it’s taking a lot of server resources. I’ve seen this particularly when enabling/disabling the WPBakery Visual Composer plugin. When it’s enabled the server usage is 90%, and when I disable it, it drops to 2-3%.
Also there was a new version of the plugin immediately after you updated the theme to version 6.7 and maybe that should be the problem of this slowness!

I’ve checked error log and I can see that on 18 March (the day that I’ve patched the latest update and you have released the update on 17 March) there is an error log: 18-Mar-2016 20:34:59 UTC] PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected end of file, expecting ‘)’ in /home/***/public_html/wp-content/plugins/js_composer/include/helpers/helpers.php on line 639.

Yeah, run into this too.
You can go back to prior version of VC and TagDiv pages should still work, usually.

So you might try that for the time being.

I’ve downgraded Visual Composer to version 4.9 and it’s working like a charm!
So, definitely there is a problem with Visual Composer 4.11 from the last update!

Hi,
we have no reports of this yet, but your error seems to point to visual composer clearly. Sometimes plugin updates get released like this (SEO yoast is the best example of this. They release several dot revisions until an update is stable) We will update visual composer again in the next theme version though.
Thank you!
