Slow Woocommerce anyone?

Since changing from Alidropship plugin to Alidropship Woo, I have been having really slow site even tho im on a dedicated server. Does this happen to anyone?

When I test pingom, the "WAIT TIME" ( which i think is a database read) is around 5 seconds.

If I use WP-cache, it goes back to 2 seconds, but when people ADD TO CART, no cache works because of the Cart list, and so the website turns really really slow to the user.

Anyone having this issue? Also tried raising max keepalive requests in apache and also MYSQL tune up, but this is the same problem.

Pretty known issue but WooCommerce nor theme respectively plugin authors aren't bothering to deal with that.
Deactivated all your plugins and switch to Storefront theme and try if your server runs smoothly with WooCommerce only plugin being enabled. And of course, make sure to clear and disabled the cache before you do that.

Then simply activate plugins one by one while testing the speed of uncached pages. Then if everything was fine, then it is probably from the theme. If it's not, try optimizing the database using phpmyadmin simple query or WP-optimize (doesn't work for all databases).

But save your time and don't contact any plugin or theme author as they will just copy paste generic read written text.
I've also noticed that Alidropship for WooCommerce increases the TTFB by 2-3 seconds so if anybody from the support team would investigate this, it would be awesome.

Great news! Just backup everything before you make the changes if you already spent time on your store.
