How it's measured →0.5%
of downloads still active
At least 8K of 1.5M lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Performance plugin keeps 1.4%, across 1,104 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Performance 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 1 release 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.

This and Jetpack boost are all you need. Finding a good way to cause headers to expire and force gzip is just about everything that can be done. I already don’t like that I have to use so many plug-ins; but I sometimes forget code revisions I write myself and it’s time-intensive. This is a 6-star plug-in!
