Performance Lab

This page shows live performance data from MakeWPFast.com itself. I run WP Multi Tool on this site and publish the results here — because if I cannot make my own site fast, why would you trust my advice?

What I Optimized

  1. Theme choice — GeneratePress (no page builder). Minimal CSS and JS footprint.
  2. Plugin audit — Only 6 active plugins. Each one justified.
  3. Autoload optimization — WP Multi Tool keeps autoloaded data at 88 KB. See the database optimization guide for details.
  4. Server config — nginx with FastCGI microcache, Brotli compression, browser caching headers. PHP 8.4 FPM. The diagnostic framework explains why these choices matter.
  5. No page builder — Content uses native WordPress blocks. Zero builder overhead.
