 * If I understand you correctly, you want to disable WordPress from calling admin-
   ajax.php for all users because of performance concerns? Is that correct?
 * Instead of disabling a core WordPress file which is a *bad idea*, I would focus
   on other website performance optimizations like image and file sizes across the
   site, reduce the amount of 3rd-party scripts/code on the site (like social networking
   widgets) and I would also suggest taking a look at your server/hosting needs 
   and optimize or upgrade there for better performance as well.

 * I have the same question. I use woocommerce plugin – which is great BUT you need
   the extra plugins to make it the consumer grade shopping cart the public expects.
   I recognize that these add to the wait times but this is intolerable. I worked
   at it for months and cannot seem to get past this issue.
 * Just trying to get to the cart is a 9 second wait on a fast server with caching
   and all the speed up gimmicks I could add. If I remove those things I can wait
   a minute or more for the same page. I have disabled all plugins and I still have
   this problem. go to this link [https://gtmetrix.com/reports/www.open-mesh.ca/m5CMUNJZ](https://gtmetrix.com/reports/www.open-mesh.ca/m5CMUNJZ)
   to view the “Waterfall” tab and you will see just how crazy it is waiting for
   nothing at the beginning and everything else loading in a split second. I only
   have about 24 inventory items so it isn’t database size. It is hard to imagine
   WordPress continually ignoring this BIGGGG issue. I need a fix for this issue
   or I will have to move to Magento – I don’t want to but I might just have to.
