 * So I’ve been trying to wrap my head around what is slowing my site down and turning
   plugins on and off and oddly enough it seems like the culprit is ultimately this
   plugin. I’m on Cloudways (if that matters) and just wanted to bring this to your
   attention. Have you had any other reports of what could be slowing it down? An
   old call to an outside server, pinging an old version of jquery or something?

 * Hi [@qwik3r](https://wordpress.org/support/users/qwik3r/),
 * what indicates that this plugin is causing the issue? The plugin doesn’t perform
   any heavy actions. It does utilize the jQuery version that’s bundled with WordPress
   core.
 * We haven’t had similar reports and didn’t notice any performance issues on our
   sites where we use the plugin.
 * Any further details would be great! 🙂
 * Have a great day.
 * Best,
    David
