Slow admin - waits and is blocked for a long time (4 posts)

    I have a wordpress site and sometimes when logged in to the admin it can be quite slow. I've attached an image to show what i mean. The first request waits for about 8 seconds before anything else happens, a lot of the time that is about 2.5 to 3 seconds wait. Then all of the other requests get blocked for several seconds.

    I do have quite a few plugins (26) could this be the reason or is it something else?

    What's actually going on here and what i can do to improve it as much as i can?

    Have you tried:

    - deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

    - switching to the Twenty Eleven theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.

    - resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

    I've deactivated all of the plugins and activated them one by one. The two that seemed to have the biggest effect was Advanced Custom Fields and Use Google Libraries. Here's what i found.

    These are the requests and time to load the index dashboard page according to the net tab of firebug.

    With no plugins activated
    26 Requests
    6-7 seconds

    With all plugins activated
    64 Requests
    13 Seconds

    With all plugins activated but the two mentioned above deactivated
    36 Requests
    8 Seconds

    If i activate Advanced custom fields
    55 Requests
    11-12 Seconds

    If i deactivate ACF and activate Use Google Libraries
    53 Requests
    10 Seconds

    Did you figured out the problem with ACF?
