My site’s admin area is very slow, and I can’t figure out why. I installed a caching plugin, but the admin panel still takes around 9-12 seconds to load.
To better assist you, could you kindly test the functionality with default WordPress themes such as TwentyTwenty or WooCommerce Storefront? This will help us determine whether the issue stems from our theme or elsewhere.
Thank you very much. As we can see from your videos, the difference is not 3s but ~0.5s which is quite normal since our theme displays more elements on the page.
But, in general, server response time 3.5s+ is very slow (according to your video and Query Monitor). It should be 0.5-1s with Storefront and up to 1.5s with WoodMart. So you need to check your server first. Also, refer to our article for help https://xtemos.com/wordpress-performance-optimization-the-ultimate-guide-in-2021/
