 * Your plugin is causing a 35% increase in memory usage and it’s adding 3 extra
   seconds to admin navigation as well as 2 extra seconds to the front end user.
   There is no plugin conflict and when I deactivate your plugin this all works 
   perfectly. So, I need to know what you’re going to do to fix this. I know you
   know of this issue for I’ve seen others report it. It’s a huge resource hog and
   that slows down sites. Not cool. Fix it.

 * Sorry can’t do it. Explain why your plugin is using that much memory? It’s a 
   simple question.

 * Hi,
 * We are using WSDesk in our live website and we do have another site without WSDesk
   installed, We are continuously monitoring the memory consumption of both the 
   sites using Digital Ocean Memory consumption graphs. But we couldn’t observe 
   any memory consumption difference while comparing the sites with and without 
   WSDesk installed. So we suspect that the issue might be something specific for
   your site. That is the reason we asked your admin credentials to debug the issue
   and provide you with a fix.
    In addition to this please give us the details on
   the tools used for checking the memory usage and the logs. So that we can do 
   more analysis on the issue.
