Biggest opportunity: Add “execution time” and “measure plugins” to your wp.org tags. You rank #12 and #22 for them without listing them, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 1 listed these are the slots worth spending.

of downloads still active
At least 90 of 3K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,767 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 7 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

Not enough installs to measure. This needs at least 100 active sites; below that, a handful of downloads reads as tens of thousands.

Crossed into this band 7 days ago and a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, so the real count is still just over 90.

Great to find the bottleneck when WP performance matters.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ docjojo1.6y ago
atec Profiler is exactly what I was looking for — a lightweight, focused plugin that gives me deep insight into how long each plugin and the active theme takes to execute. It works by injecting two micro-profiler scripts into the mu-plugins folder, so it captures performance as early as possible, which is critical for accurate measurements. You can see total plugin load time, theme time, and even page processing time — all without adding overhead.If you’re trying to troubleshoot bottlenecks or understand what’s slowing down your site, this plugin belongs in your toolkit. Highly recommended.
