    The last few weeks my web-server keeps sitting at 100% Spikes (admin-ajax) and at this point my host is saying to lower the amount of plugins. Of course they can (and would increase resources) but they’re telling me it would still max out.

    Now, I understand people say keep Plugins down low, but it’s functionality that my audience love. What’s the best way to handle it?

    My website is a hub, so I have a map directory, a sales area and of course BuddyPress. But, all of these features require plugins. What exactly does a BuddyPress do if they can’t have functionality like ‘Capital Letter in Usernames’ or ‘Non-Editable Profile Fields’?

    Apparently it’s my admin-ajax causing problems, but this doesn’t mean alot to me. Any suggestions, feedback or advice would be amazing.

    I’ve included a list, but bascially it cuts into WPMUDEV, BuddyDev, Geodirectory, WPAdverts and AppPresser for 90% of the plugins.

    Hi Graham,
    From the looks of the issue, you have a plugin which is doing successive polling. Look for a plugin that does some kind of real time things or notifications.

    None of our plugins that you use from us does any polling, so I can assure that it is not us.

    As far as number of plugins are concerned, It is never an issue for server(It is a maintenance issue though). The issue concerns to what plugin you are using and what they do?

    My suggestion will be disabling plugins and seeing it on a staging site.

    Also, you can use heartbeat control to control the polling by BuddyPress.

    Regards
    Brajsh
