• I am using WordPress – WooThemes Canvas for my site (iredcord.com),

    I have a child theme for canvas set up (child theme name is iredcord – I used one click child theme to create),

    When I use pingdom (tools.pingdom.com/fpt/ in the report I see that there is a huge wait time for 2 files:

    http://iredcord.com/?woo-layout-css=l…

    all that is happening is with this is

    @media only screen and (min-width: 768px) {
    .two-col-right-960 #main-sidebar-container { width: 100%; }
    .two-col-right-960 #main-sidebar-container #main { width: 75%; }
    .two-col-right-960 #main-sidebar-container #sidebar { width: 20%; }

    admin-ajax.php which returns ()
    iredcord.com/wp-admin/)

    Can you (or someone) tell me why this occurring and what I can do about this?

    Woothemes simply replies this is a performance issue and is not related to the theme which I have difficulty with as I would think it has to do with how the theme is reacting with WordPress …

  • What happens when you use the default Twenty Twelve theme with all plugins deactivated?

    haven’t tried this … I am using Canvas as a theme …

    might be yet another stupid question but what happens to all my products and configurations if I just change themes and deactivate all the plug ins?

    it would seem that woo-layout is the layout manager and is simply setting the size but this is a very expensive way to do this …

    admin-ajax.php … I’ve seen lots of comments around about the () return but nothing as related to performance and even using firebug I can’t figure out what is making this call and why the return of () … essentially an expensive call to nothing as far as I can tell

    what happens to all my products and configurations if I just change themes and deactivate all the plug ins?

    Nothing. They’ll all be there for when you re-activate the theme & plugins. Any changes during the troubleshooting process should only be temporary.

    when I change to Twenty Eleven (I don’t see a Twenty Twelve in my themes) … no real change … I’ve not deactivated the plugin’s …

    I’d surly like to understand

    Woo Layout CSS – is pretty clear on what it’s doing … if I turn it off (layout manager)
    I gain quite a bit in performance and jsquery.js shows as the “pig” this process
    runs starting at .7 and finishes at 1.5 seconds

    admin-ajax is the other “pig” at the tail end (last process to complete and has
    a huge wait time though 2 other process start after admin-ajax but complete
    very quickly … admin-ajax starts at 1.6 seconds and finishes at 2.67

    How can I trace what is calling admin-ajax (or do you have any idea?)

    What version of WordPress are you using?
