 * I was tracing the performance of my site and one thing I spotted as the AddThis
   plugin was checking for lots of little options.
 * addthis_language, addthis_brand, addthis_append_data etc.
 * A better way of doing this is to have a single setting say called “addthis” and
   to store all of the values needed in an array.
 * Making this change should improve the performance of sites using AddThis.
 * Thanks
