 * Trying reinvent. Curious what type of CPU load it adds to WordPress. Assume 500,000
   post views a month.
 * Also how many data fields does it add to my database. I can look but maybe its
   here.
 * Looking at autoloaded options I see natuteto_analytics_button — is that from 
   reinvent

 * Hi Craig,
 * Thanks for checking. In normal use, the plugin should add very little server 
   load to WordPress page views. It mainly outputs the player on the frontend and
   stores its main settings in WordPress options. The heavier work (generating audio)
   only happens when audio is requested/generated, not on every page load for every
   visitor. So at roughly 500,000 page views/month, the impact should still be modest
   unless the site is also actively generating a lot of new audio or using extra
   features like podcast/background processing.
 * On the database side, it does not create custom database tables. From the plugin
   source, the main settings are stored in the `natuteto_settings` option, and analytics
   can also create option records such as `natuteto_analytics_button`, `natuteto_analytics_insight`,
   and `natuteto_analytics_api` when those features are used. So you are mainly 
   looking at a small number of `wp_options` entries rather than additional tables.
 * And yes — `natuteto_analytics_button` is from this plugin.
 * If you want, I can also help you identify which of these options are autoloaded
   and which plugin settings would minimize runtime/storage overhead on your site.
 * Best regards
