wp profile monitors key performance indicators of the WordPress execution process to help you quickly identify points of slowness.

Save hours diagnosing slow WordPress sites with wp profile. Because you can easily run it on any server that supports WP-CLI, wp profile compliments Xdebug and New Relic by pointing you in the right direction for further debugging. And, because it's a WP-CLI command, using wp profile means you don't have to install a plugin and deal with the painful dashboard of a slow WordPress site.

First, run wp profile stage to see metrics for each stage of the WordPress load process:

$ wp profile stage
+------------+---------+------------+-------------+-------------+------------+--------------+-----------+------------+--------------+---------------+
| stage      | time    | query_time | query_count | cache_ratio | cache_hits | cache_misses | hook_time | hook_count | request_time | request_count |
+------------+---------+------------+-------------+-------------+------------+--------------+-----------+------------+--------------+---------------+

+------------+---------+------------+-------------+-------------+------------+--------------+-----------+------------+--------------+---------------+

Then, use wp profile stage bootstrap to dive into higher fidelity of a particular stage. Include the --spotlight flag to filter out the zero-ish results.

$ wp profile stage bootstrap --spotlight

Lastly, when you've found a specific hook you'd like to assess, use wp profile hook <hook>. Include the --fields=<fields> argument to focus on certain fields.

$ wp profile hook plugins_loaded --fields=callback,time,location
+------------------------------------------------------------+---------+-----------------------------------------------------------------+
