**Hey guys! I hope you’re doing all fine**
I’m having problems with my website, Yesterday I installed discourse on fresh domain and on fresh droplet with **2GB ram , 1 CPU and 50 GB hard disk,** It was running fine .. and this morning I installed two plugins in discourse
1: Discourse voting
2: Discourse whose online plugin
**still, it was running fine enough**
but after some time now It’s so slow .. when I type my website address it takes so much time to even load up the website and after it completely loads the website .. it takes so much time to go to any page .. overall

It seems fine when I load it (I remembered the address from your other topic 🙂). How does it compare to loading up and navigating another discourse instance? (eg. meta, or [https://try.discourse.org/](https://try.discourse.org/)). Could it be your internet/browser that needs a refresh?

Which web browser are you using?

There is a known performance issue with that plugin. We are reworking it internally and will fix this issue in the coming months, so I suggest to try and rebuild the site without it and see if performance returns.

Hi! I’m using this plugin on two forums.
Is there a way to monitor the performance variations depending on the number of connected users? It’s not like I can try different numbers at will… 🙂
