Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about WP-Memory-Usage

In three places: the WordPress dashboard widget "Memory Overview", the admin footer on every backend page, and in detail across the plugin's settings tabs.

PHP version, operating system architecture, WordPress and PHP memory limits, current peak memory usage (in MB and as a percentage), server IP address, and PHP max execution time.

Enable logging in the Settings tab. The History tab shows individual requests with their memory usage and context. The Digest tab aggregates this data and highlights the top memory-consuming URLs. Temporarily deactivating plugins is a common next step to isolate the cause.

The Diagnose tab (new in 2.1.0) collects a comprehensive snapshot of your PHP and WordPress memory configuration — OPcache status, garbage collector, loaded extensions, php.ini settings, and more. It generates a ready-made prompt you can copy and paste directly into an AI assistant (ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) for instant analysis.

Yes.

A clean uninstall removes all stored options, scheduled cron jobs, database-tables, and log files. Nothing is left behind.
