Admin panel responsiveness and best practices

[ad_1]

Greetings, long time WordPress user here managing a few sites including a small Wooecommerce site. I'm wondering if anyone can offer suggestions on how to speed up the absolute sluggishness of the admin panel? I know this is a broad, multi-factorial question that depends a lot on the web hosting environment. I use Digital Ocean and Vultr via Cloudways and no matter how many resources I seem to throw at it (i.e. CPU cores and memory) the backend is just a pain to wait for each click to resolve the next page (both simple navigation and form submissions/updates seem to pause the around the same time). Front-end speed is never an issue as I'm readily getting B+ to A on GTMetrix. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

  1. Do you have a redis object cache setup? It seems to help in both front and back end very well. I’m wondering if maybe you are hitting some disk IO limits and slowing down due to that.

  2. Do you have any admin/backend plugins? Also, how does it perform if you create a woocommerce user account? Is it slow for that user, too?
