 * Hi, i loved your plugin. Good job.
 * But unfortunatelly, i got an weird error with it.
 * I use woocommerce and dokan plugins.
 * All was going fine. I optimized all images with all resources available from 
   the plugin. When suddenly, some products (and only some products) weren’t openning
   anymore. They were “forever loading”. I don’t know exactly how to debug it, but
   i deactivated all plugins, one by one, until i found that when i deactivated 
   yours, all went back to normal.
 * So, i wonder if you can assist me on this? What informations can i give you more?
 * thanks

 * Not sure what could cause that. I’m releasing 2.3 tonight, try that and see if
   it fixes anything. If not, check any server error logs that you have available
   for messages. If there is nothing useful there, enable debugging in your wp-config.
   php file (set it to true), and see if that outputs any errors.

 * 2.3 didn’t fix it…
    debug is on. But the page doesn’t open. So it doesn’t show
   anything.
 * i made some tests deactivating and activating the plugin and reloading the page.
 * when plugin is on i get: “Failed to clear temp storage: It was determined that
   certain files are unsafe for access within a Web application, or that too many
   calls are being made on file resources. SecurityError”
 * know what this is?
 * the weird thing is that only some products are giving this erros, and i can’t
   figure out yet what they have in commum.

 * Sounds like your webhost is preventing EWWW from doing something, you’ll need
   to check with them to see what specifically that message means.

 * i fixed this error. but it doesn’t have anything to do with EWWW or this problem…
 * i have full access to my VPS, so anything it needs to be done, you can tell me.
   I insatlled EWWW out of the box and just installed pngout in my vps.
 * now, everything is on. Except Imagemagick ‘convert’ tha is missing and safemode
   that is off.
 * the pages evenctually opens, but it takes 10 minutes just to get the first data(
   the TTFB). There are no errors shown on the page. Even if debug mode is on and
   js debug too.
 * i deactivated the automatic optimization and problem was solved. Don’t know why.
   Guess i will have to try the programmed optimization.

 * You should always run the bulk operations from the web interface or wp-cli the
   first time. Scheduled optimization is for on-going upkeep of extra folders that
   you’ve configured and your theme files. If you have lots of files, it is going
   to hammer your site pretty badly, and cause the load issues you saw.

 * Humm… I guess i have to deactivate it all and do some optimizations manually.
 * It would be nice to be able to program a schedule time of the week to automatic
   optimize the site. Like the backup plugins have, you know? You choose a low traffic
   hour and date, and the plugin make it’s magic then.
 * But one question, the load issues ocurred when automatic optimization was on,
   not schedule optimization…

 * Sorry, I thought you said scheduled, I should read more carefully next time. 
   Sounds like perhaps some plugins are generating images on-the-fly then, which
   could also cause load issues.

 * Seems to be that. Even though my knowledge prevents me to know why. I use woocommerce,
   dokan, wordpress seo…
 * i appreciate your support here. Very fast reponses!

 * Can you turn on EWWW, and send me a link or two to a page that is having trouble
   loading?

 * well, for some reason i don’t know…, it’s a little better. but not optimum.
 * taking 25sec just to start loading: [http://artedoencontro.com/produto/teste/](http://artedoencontro.com/produto/teste/)

 * A delay like that means something is processing an incredible amount of code,
   or doing a lot of database queries before it can start the page rendering process.
 * I would disable plugins one at a time until you find out which one causes that
   long delay.
 * Usually, if it is EWWW interacting badly with another plugin, the page will still
   load quickly, but the images will be slow to load (usually).
 * Once you’ve tracked that down, I would enable either W3TC or WP Super Cache to
   cache your pages. I think you’d see a pretty big improvement in loads times with
   that.

   later for you. thanks.
