 * Dear WordPress plugin provider,
    I am using your plugin for which I am satisfied.
   However by assessing the performance of each plugin on my site I noticed that
   there were some aspects that I am concerned about and for which I believe it 
   creates some issues on my site. In order to conduct this assessment I used WP
   Hive ([https://wphive.com/plugins/give/](https://wphive.com/plugins/give/)) which
   provides me an evaluation on each plugin. Please note this assessment is not 
   related to my site therefore most likely your other plugin users would encounter
   some issues too. The issues found are the following: • Memory usage of this plugin
   is higher than average of other plugins (i.e +200KB) • The latest version of 
   your plugin is not compatible with the latest PHP version (7.4.8) • The latest
   version of your plugin is not compatible with the latest WordPress version (5.8.2)•
   The plugin creates more than 50 database tables I don’t know if those elements
   are still up to date but I wanted to share with you to see if anything could 
   be done to avoid any issues that could impact my site ? Thanks in advance. Gaetan

 * Hi [@mbio86](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mbio86/),
 * Happy to go over those points.
 * 1. Memory usage of this plugin is higher than average of other plugins (i.e +
   200KB)
    – This one I’m not so sure and it depends on the number of forms and 
   donations you have on the site.
 * 2. The latest version of your plugin is not compatible with the latest PHP version(
   7.4.8)
    – Yes, it is. most of our customers run on 7.4 and some even on PHP 8
   already.
 * 3. The latest version of your plugin is not compatible with the latest WordPress
   version (5.8.2)
    – Yes it is, you can even see it listed on our WordPress page:
   [https://wordpress.org/plugins/give/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/give/) “Tested
   up to:5.9.3”
 * 4. The plugin creates more than 50 database tables.
    – GiveWP core creates 13
   tables. Some of our premium add-ons create additional tables. My test site with
   all add-ons installed has 23 tables total.
 * You can double-check this in your database by counting any table with the “give”
   prefix.
 * Let me know if you have any other questions/comments.
