WordPress powers all sorts of cloud applications today. With our WP Autoloader, you can speed up your WordPress platform greatly in just five minutes.
WordPress is largely built upon procedural functions. PHP natively supports autoloading for classes but not procedural functions. This means that WordPress requires loading a large number of PHP functions for each page request which costs unnecessary time wastage.
WP AutoLoader uses sophisticated code parsing techniques to extract all PHP functions into their own individual files, leaving behind empty shells in the original function definition files. This greatly lightens the processing load, leading to time and memory savings!
Moreover, our setup and reset scripts are intuitive and provide helpful feedback along the entire process.
WP AutoLoader also bootstraps core WordPress functions that it has determined to be most commonly used, in addition to parsing and enabling auto loading for core PHP classes. Combined, this product attempts to optimize the WordPress core, greatly.
Besides the obvious benefit of having a faster running web application, there are several pressing reasons your enterprise WP software needs this addition:
We tested WordPress in similar environments and found the below trend lines for when WordPress AutoLoader is enabled (On), and when WP AutoLoader is disabled (Off).
As you can see, AutoLoader clearly takes away the spikes from server-side processing times; in addition to delivering slightly better load times in general.
WP AutoLoader only touches one part of your WordPress setup:
- wp-includes/ directoryWP AotoLoader does not touch your database.
Once WP AutoLoader is enabled, a new directory is setup in your WordPress application root:
The wp-src/ directory has the following four sub folders:
Both of the following two items will need to be pushed to live environment to enable WP AutoLoader in that environment:
1) wp-includes/
2) wp-src/
You don’t need to run php autoloader enable & php autoloader disable commands in production environment.

No. One license is enough for your organization if you own multiple WordPress applications.
Digital Studios typically have an unusual number of WordPress projects, which may require more support so we offer them a distinct license.

WP AutoLoader optimizes the WordPress Core (referenced in the adjacent diagram). The WordPress core could not be optimized before.
There are plugins and server tools available to optimize the other layers like the server layer and front-end media files, but the WP core could not be modified until now.
WP AutoLoader enables lazy loading on un-needed PHP code, saving significant processing time. That’s the magic of WP AutoLoader.
You probably have a sophisticated collection of caching and load-balancing server tools like the AWS Elastic Beanstalk; however, your WP site would still greatly benefit from WP AutoLoader; leading to further load-time savings and decreased server costs!
