 * Hello everyone,
 * I use got startet with event manager pro.
    I´m using the tool primarily for the
   booking and paying of a very customised page with very few events (atm **4 events**).
   When the plugin is activated it takes about **7 seconds to load the page** – 
   without its normal fast speed. Now I disabled all but one event and it still 
   takes like 3-4 seconds.
 * Do you guys have any ideas or recommendations on that?
 * Besides that I got **500s** today – don´t know why – now it seems to work. (I
   activated, deactivated, activated… and now down to just one event)
    this is the
   page [http://www.welle8samkeit.com/retreats/](http://www.welle8samkeit.com/retreats/)
 * Thanks a lot in advance
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fperformance-slow-loading-server-500%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * I am not part of support just some dude…
 * I couldn’t speak to the 500 errors, maybe a temporary glitch.
    One thing, if 
   you don’t have a cache plugin I would look into that.
 * A helpful link to give you insights… google tool
    [https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/](https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/)
 * And then another to look at is…
    [https://gtmetrix.com/](https://gtmetrix.com/)
 * I couldn’t speak directly about the pro version slowing down with database queries…
   
   But my site has well over 2000 events past and present… and I don’t have any 
   page speed depreciation… well, except that anytime you add a plugin there will
   be some slow down. But it shouldn’t be dramatic.

 * It’s possible this is a conflict caused by your theme or another plugin. To check
   if it is, can you test with all other plugins deactivated and while running the
   default WordPress theme?
