 * With this plugin de-activated from pressing order until the thankyou page is 
   shown is approx 5-8 seconds. When the plugin is enabled it goes up to 30seconds
   + sometimes timing out. I’ve tested everything on the site and this plugin is
   the only thing that changes the speed of that order processing.

 * Please turn off the first two check boxes on the settings page right sidebar.
   This not the performance issue but the inadequate resources issue. Please use
   cron job instead of these two checkboxes.

 * the orders list page and my account page options under “Cron Jobs” heading are
   currently unchecked already. If that is what you are saying? We have the site
   on a pretty powerful hosting plan.

 * See, performance issues are not the bugs, when there are more scripts running
   the background so sometimes it takes more than usual. In case you want to contribute
   to this plugin, the code is open and you can review the queries, if anything 
   can be improved, give it a try and share the snippets with me, I will add/update
   in the next version. We should not start a debate on the powerful hosting plan,
   this support forum is to report the issues/warnings/bugs and errors. Please Try
   the other plugin “wc order split”, that is a light one.
