    Experiencing major performance issues on a WordPress site I’m working on that runs the Enfold theme. When analyzing performance diagnostics with New Relic, I consistently see the avia_deep_decode function appearing as a bottleneck.

    Details:

    • The avia_deep_decode function is frequently flagged in New Relic performance reports
    • It appears to be significantly slowing down page load times
    • I’m working on optimizing this site and this function appears to be a major blocker

    Questions:

    • What is the purpose of the avia_deep_decode function in Enfold?
    • Is it safe to disable or modify this function to improve performance?
    • Are there any recommended alternatives or optimizations for this function?</li

    Any guidance would be greatly appreciated as I’m trying to improve the site’s speed without compromising functionality.

    Thank you!

    Hi,

    Thank you for using Enfold.

    avia_deep_decode

    is a core function needed to properly convert HTML characters in ALB elements. And it is not recommended to remove/change it.

    As all builders also our ALB has some overhead that slow down backend pageload.
    Consider to switch to a hoster that provides higher performance – and try to increase memory for php and WP.

    For frontend use caching plugins to speed up pageload – and check that your images are optimized and the dimension uploaded does not exceed the maximum size needed.

    Hope this helps you.

    Best regards,
    Günter
