Theme Slows Down After A Week or Two

Posted in: Newspaper

Hi,

Every time I install this theme along with a demo, it runs very fast for a period of time. Currently my PageSpeed Score is 96%, and YSlow Score is 91%. So those are optimized very well. But, every single time… Usually after a couple of weeks, the site slows down dramatically. It went from 2-3 seconds Fully Loaded Time, to about 19-20 seconds Fully Loaded Time. And this was without any changes to Plugins.

Does anybody else have this issue?

How do you fix this?

When I uninstalled the composer the speed was back, but unfortunately that is required for the site. Another thing that works is to uninstall the used demo and reinstall it. But, what would be the point of having to reinstall/configure everything every couple of weeks when it stops working efficiently, and to have to do all of the work again?

Hi,

This problem can be cause by the amount for news that are added on your website. Also there was added a new tootle for test in google page speed.
Also tagDiv Composer is the hart of the theme without it you’ll have only some static text (html), that’s way the theme will became faster, but will not have any functionality.

Thank you!

I don’t have the website any more due to the undefinable issues, but this was the website I was creating.

https://gtmetrix.com/reports/www.businessinfiltrator.com/Bt90fFGk

You can see that the PageSpeed Score was 96% and YSlow was at 91%. I didn’t have any conflicting Plugins. And the website was hosted through WordPress.com.

Total Page size was 1.28 MB, but somehow the Fully Loaded Time was 18.9 seconds.

The site only had 10 posts, so it was not an issue with too much news.

I am aware that tagDiv Composer was essential to the theme, it seemed that the site speed was fixed after I uninstalled and reinstalled a demo, but after two weeks it just went to extremely slow loading time even though the page was optimized.

I looked at your guys’ guides already, and those didn’t provide a solution to this specific issue.

Maybe you guys can find something out through that GTmetrix link?

Hi,

As a suggestion, you can update to Newspaper v10.3.5 this has some improvements and is possible to help to fix these problems.
