WP Multitool Adds Plugin Performance Score
WP Multitool 1.1.19 introduces a new Plugin Performance Score module that adds a Performance column to the WordPress Plugins admin page. For each installed plugin the column shows a deterministic score (0–100), PHP memory usage, and number of database queries based on benchmark data from makewpfast.com. Benchmarks are run in isolated Docker containers on clean WordPress installs (one plugin active at a time). The plugin ships with a static ~220 KB bundled benchmark data file (cached by PHP opcache) and covers about 5,000 plugins; if a plugin is not in the dataset a dash is shown. The feature is enabled by default and the WP Multitool package includes 14 modules.

The post appears alongside promotional sponsor content for MongoDB Atlas and platform mentions (Algolia, Google AI).
