Enhance Your WordPress Admin Speed
Fast Backend is a free WordPress plugin designed to optimize and speed up the WordPress Admin area through a series of effective tweaks. This plugin focuses solely on enhancing backend performance without affecting the visual aspects of your site. Key features include native lazy loading for images, a reduced frequency of WordPress heartbeat signals, and less frequent autosaving of posts. By implementing these changes, users can experience a more responsive and efficient admin interface.
One of the standout features is the native lazy loading of images, which adds loading attributes to images that may be missing them. Additionally, the plugin extends the WordPress heartbeat interval from 15 seconds to 45 seconds, reducing server load. It also adjusts the autosave function to save posts every 120 seconds instead of the default 60 seconds. Furthermore, by loading plugin stylesheets in the footer, the plugin helps prevent rendering blocks, contributing to an overall smoother experience.
