# Slow performance

 * We use this plugin for an online retreat to customers.
 * We have a single retreat page which has 8 separate wise chat threads/groups corresponding
   to different parts of discussion.
 * I’ve changed the Ajax threshold to 120s and use the ultralight library but it
   still slows down our entire VPS. We have 4GB and 2 cores.
 * Also after disabling the plugin we still see a ton of hits to the ajax calls.
   Is this because users may still have it open?
 * Is there anyway to reduce the load this plugin uses?

 * Hello [@contemplate](https://wordpress.org/support/users/contemplate/)
 * If I understand correctly – you added 8 chats on a single page? It is too much.
   Please separate them to 8 pages. Add a single chat on a single page.
 * The Ajax calls means that someone has still opened the chat window. The requests
   will disappear once the user closes the window.
 * Have a nice day.

 * I understand. It would be nice to have an option, however, so that the chat is
   only updated on page load or on comment submission similar to comments so that
   we could use multiple on a page without the slow performance.

 * From time to time the chat performs some maintenance actions. These may slow 
   the site too. I would recommend to limit the number of chats on a single page.
 * Best regards
