TTFB (time to first byte)
Hi,
having big Problems regarding TTFB which influence the loading time ... tested with
www.webpagetest.org
Myself using WPENGINE as a hoster and told than to check why my TTFB value sooooooooooo slow:
following answer should really case Action by the developers:
While nearly all database queries are executing quickly, the
theme has enough queries that it takes over three times as long to execute than all
active plugins combined (having 21 of them !!!). The highest cost function (overall, all calls combined) is the generic
call_user_func_array which is
called most often by the theme itself.
If you'd like to test this out to see what I am talking about, try changing the theme over to a default theme such as twentytwelve in the staging environment and watch how much more quickly the TTFB is.
For moving forward here, I would suggest reaching out to the parent theme developer in order to find if there is a newer version or anything that reduces the amount of overall database queries that it makes.
Just recognize that there's a quite similar Problem for jobroller (
