Latest Update slows Websites down

Martin Weisbach

Hi! 

lately I've been updating some of my 80 Websites based on Brizy to the latest versions: 2.8.1 After updating those websites have extreme bad loading times which are not acceptable. It takes up to ten seconds for any page on these websites to load, it doesn't matter if these pages are clicked for the first time after updating and clearing the cache or the 10th time. I've been testing the loading time before and after updating to the latest brizy versions and I can say that it has definitely to do with that update. I tested different browsrs (Chrome, Firefox Safari), it's everywhere the same. You may test the loading time on https://www.mimaho.de/ or https://www.ruzicka-teamwerkstatt.de/

Do you have any information about that behaviour?

    Hello Martin,

    I tested the performance of the two websites using GT Metrix and here are the reports

    1. mimaho.de: https://gtmetrix.com/reports/www.mimaho.de/jERMK8Hf/
    2. ruzicka-teamwerkstatt.de: https://gtmetrix.com/reports/www.ruzicka-teamwerkstatt.de/QECp2oeh/

    From the reports, "Onload Time" (the time for all the page resources to finish downloading) for the two websites were 673ms and 994ms respectively. This menas both websites loaded within a second. 

    I also tested the visual loading speed of the two websites from India. Please see https://jmp.sh/MMiT9Usv for my tests. Both websites loaded instantaneously.

    Thank you!

    Could you please check what happens when you try to open subpages through the menu?

    I am sorry but I have to bring this up again. Many of my clients complain that their websites are too slow. I've tried so many things, experimented with caching, deactivated and reactivated various plugins – all to no avail. I'm at a loss. Please take a look at the PageSpeed ​​Insights results for the example website www.brillenschmiede-holzgerlingen.de: https://pagespeed.web.dev/analysis/https-brillenschmiede-holzgerlingen-de/m0qxjepd3b?form_factor=desktop And as I said, this is just one of countless examples of incredibly slow websites using Brizy...

    Hello Martin,

    I tested the above website at my end. I see this report: https://pagespeed.web.dev/analysis/https-brillenschmiede-holzgerlingen-de/w7y81afcsd?form_factor=desktop

    For a comparison, let's look at the destop performance of Google.com on PageSpeed Insights: https://pagespeed.web.dev/analysis/https-google-com/h0peseq537?use_original_url=true&form_factor=desktop

    As you can see, the PSI desktop performance score of your website is 12 points higher compared to Google.com.

    Can you make a screen recording of how the page loads at your end? This will help us understand what you are experiencing.

    I solved the problem with the menu. The website is still superslow. See the video here: https://www.schoenbu.ch/2026-05-06-screen-recording.mov

    Hello Martin

    Please see my test at https://jmp.sh/EX5dI3OB. Your pages loaded within a second during my tests. It is possible that the first visit to a page following an update is slow, while subsequent visits are fast. Possibly, a new cache gets generated during the first visit following an update. If this is the case, the page will load slow for the initial visitor (following an update), but faster for subsequent visitors.

    You could try using a different cache plugin like WP Optimize and check if that helps in increasing the speed for the first visitor after an update.
