admin-ajax.php high wait time on pingdom test

  • @atsouf

    Hello,

    I am using wordpress 4.2.2 and buddypress 2.2.3.1 with bbpress 2.5.7

    i have an issue with my buddypress wordpress. My site has load time 10 secs with admin-ajax.php loading 3 times with 3-4 sec delay every time.

    The only thing i could find on the forums has to do with woocoomerce which i dont have activated on my theme. I guess the only thing that has issues with admin-ajax.php is the buddypress login thats why i open that topic.
    You can check what i mean here http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/#!/dBUhCx/http://apofasismenoi.gr/

    I tried some solutions like heartbeat options pluggin that didnt work.

    Also i tried and added on functions a suggested code

    add_action( 'init', 'my_deregister_heartbeat', 1 );
    function my_deregister_heartbeat() {
    	global $pagenow;
    
    	if ( 'post.php' != $pagenow && 'post-new.php' != $pagenow )
    		wp_deregister_script('heartbeat');
    }

    but still didnt work.

    Any ideas or help?

    Chris

    admin-ajax.php is known for being clunky, but not 10-second-wait clunky. Which plugins are you running? Which theme? And also do you have any custom code in place that calls admin-ajax.php?

    Looking through your list of active plugins, it’s likely one or more are using admin-ajax.php. You should try identify which of them are a) using the resource and b) how often. The Heartbeat API is known to put pressure on admin-ajax.php so perhaps check if any are using that as well.

    Any chance there is a test that can tell me which plugins or functions use heartbeat api?

    Not that I know of. Have a read of How to Take Control of The WordPress Heartbeat API for an overview of the performance issues associated with it.
