Hello @onfyre
Just reviewed @pork1977gm plugin. Have not used it yet but given Paul’s awesome work and contributions to the community I plan to evaluate it soon. He supports his plugins closely and it looks very promising!
You could also consider the below resources that list some general practices to improve performance:

I’m very happy to say that after months of work, the new revised edition of The Ultimate Guide to Bubble Performance is out! The new version has more than 50 pages of new content, including a detailed guide on how to think about database structuring - one of the most requested guides from the first book. There’s also a full section on all the steps Bubble goes through while loading a page - @philledille you’re gonna like that one

use custom events ex…
Hope the above helps!
