Code Profiler – WordPress Performance Profiling and Debugging Made Easy

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 70% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   Pretty much zero functionality in the free version and $90/year is too steep for my personal websites.

   Only the pro version has detailed profiling per PHP script file, so this functionality exists, but you can’t be bothered to at least show the correct per plugin timings in the free version – but instead say “well, some of your plugins use composer, so this means nothing, good luck“.

   The graph which actually shows the info that you need is only available on the Pro version. Waste of time.

   Useless – presents unreliable data which leads to false positives, huge problem with measuring plugins using composer, gives completely wrong impression of what is really going on – total waste of time.

   Genau so ein Plugin habe ich schon lange gesucht. Damit erhält man eine sehr gute Übersicht, welche Plugins und Themes die Ladezeit einer Webseite auf einer bestimmten Seite verzögern.

   Dość skutecznie pomaga w identyfikacji problematycznych wtyczek. Skraca czas niezbędny na analizę przyczyn wolniejszego działania serwisu.
