# Plugin causing huge slow down

 * I’ve been working on a clients site which has this plugin installed, but not 
   currently in use. I migrated to a new server as part of the work I’m doing and
   pinpointed this plugin as causing a huge backend slowdown on both servers. 
   Is
   this a known issue? Could I get some help understanding what could be causing
   this ~10sec lag please?
 * Thanks!

 * Hello there,
 * Thanks for reaching out. Did you try to run a conflict test disabling all the
   other plugins and reverting your theme to a default one like [Storefront](https://themes.woocommerce.com/storefront/)?
 * You can see details for this process on our guide: [https://woocommerce.com/document/how-to-test-for-conflicts/](https://woocommerce.com/document/how-to-test-for-conflicts/)
 * If that doesn’t identify the root cause for you, please send us a copy of your
   site’s System Status so we can take a better look. You can find it by going to“
   WooCommerce” > “Status”, clicking “Get system report”, and “Copy for support”.
   Once you have it, just paste it here in your reply.
 * We look forward to your update!

 * 10 seconds would be great, my site was as much as double that – I deactivated
   Stripe and let PayPal do the work – site sped up instantly.

 * Hi [silhouette.nsw](https://wordpress.org/support/users/silhouettensw/),
 * Thanks for following up and sharing more context. Slow performance like that 
   can definitely be frustrating, and we’re here to help get to the bottom of it.
 * To move forward with troubleshooting, could you please share your **System Status
   Report** with us? You can get this from **WooCommerce > Status > Get system report**,
   then paste it into [https://quickforget.com](https://quickforget.com) or [https://pastebin.com](https://pastebin.com)
   and send the link here.
 * Also, when you get a chance, please check for any recent entries in your **WooCommerce
   logs** (while the WooCommerce Stripe Payment Gateway plugin is activated) under**
   WooCommerce > Status > Logs**, particularly for fatal errors or plugin-related
   issues. You can share any relevant logs the same way using QuickForget or Pastebin.
 * If possible, setting up a **staging site** where the issue can be tested safely
   without affecting your live store would also help. Once that’s ready, we can 
   dig deeper into the performance issue together.
 * Looking forward to your update!

 * Ahh. To be honest I have since removed the plugin altogether and am letting PayPal
   process the CC paments. The insane wait-time a page to load was costing money
   and customers.
