 * By inserting an error log call in plugin files ie; error_log(‘GOT HERE’) I am
   finding all my plugins are being somehow loaded multiple times. In some cases
   3 or 4 times. Even well known plugins like gravityforms.
 * Is this normal? If not, any thoughts on how I may troubleshoot how this is happening.
   Seems a heavy use of valuable load time.
 * What sayeth the group?

 * As an update to this post, I have since disabled EVERY plugin except one and 
   changed my theme to another in order to isolate this issue. But the problem persists.
 * As a test I have activated one plugin: “bxSlider integration for WordPress” but
   it works with others the same way. If I test in the error_log I can see the file
   bxslider-integration.php is included 3 times during the load process.
 * Thanks for your thoughts.
