<p>MySQL Profiler displays debugging information about SQL queries to admin WordPress users.  For each query, the profiler displays the time, syntax-highlighted SQL, and a trace of the functions (as well as the file and line number that the functions were called from) that were called.</p>
<p>The list can be sorted by any of its columns, so you can, for example:</p>
<ul>
<li>Order the list by ID to see the chronological order of the queries</li>
<li>Order the list by time to see the slowest queries</li>
<li>Order the list by query to group the queries by type (SELECT, UPDATE, etc)</li>
<li>Order the list by trace to group the queries by similar origins</li>
</ul>
<p>The list can also filtered by typing in the search box, so you can, for example:</p>
<ul>
<li>View all queries that use the wp_posts table</li>
<li>View all queries that are related to the use of a function in taxonomy.php</li>
<li>View all queries that are related to the use of a specific function or class</li>
<li>View all queries that call a specific MySQL function</li>
</ul>
<p>To turn off syntax highlighting, put the following in wp-config.php:</p>
<pre><code>define('MP_HIGHLIGHT_SYNTAX', false);
</code></pre>
<p>To omit the file and line number from the function trace and display the functions as a comma-separated list (to save vertical space), define the following in wp-config.php:</p>
<pre><code>define('MP_DISPLAY_FILES', false);
</code></pre>
<p>This plugin was loosely based on <a href="http://bueltge.de/" rel="nofollow ugc">Frank Bueltge</a>‘s <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/debug-queries/" rel="ugc">Debug Queries</a> plugin, so a hearty thanks to him for the development of that.</p>

<p>CodeTelemetryLab Admin Performance Inspector is a developer-focused performance profiling plugin built exclusively for the WordPress admin area. It instruments the WordPress request lifecycle in real time and presents all profiling data inside a clean, dedicated dashboard under Tools <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Admin Performance Inspector.</p>
<p>No configuration needed. Activate the plugin and instantly see what is slowing down your WordPress backend.</p>
<h4>What It Profiles</h4>
<p><strong>Admin Page Execution Time</strong><br />
Measures total request time from plugins_loaded to shutdown using microtime(true). Displays the precise execution time in milliseconds on the overview panel.</p>
<p><strong>Plugin Load Performance</strong><br />
Tracks the execution time of every active plugin using a lightweight MU-plugin drop-in. Displays a sortable table of all plugins with their individual load times and flags slow-loading plugins automatically.</p>
<p><strong>Database Query Profiling</strong><br />
Captures every SQL query executed during the admin request using WordPress’s native SAVEQUERIES constant. Displays total query count, slow query count, cumulative query time, and a full query list with origin file and line number. Slow queries (default threshold: 100ms) are visually flagged.</p>
<p><strong>Hook Execution Profiling</strong><br />
Times key WordPress hooks including init, admin_init, admin_menu, current_screen, and wp_loaded. Shows execution time and registered callback count for each hook.</p>
<p><strong>Memory Usage Monitoring</strong><br />
Displays current memory usage, peak memory usage, and percentage of PHP memory limit consumed — with a visual progress bar.</p>
<h4>Who Is This For?</h4>
<ul>
<li>WordPress developers diagnosing slow admin dashboards</li>
<li>Site administrators troubleshooting plugin conflicts</li>
<li>DevOps engineers benchmarking admin performance</li>
<li>Agencies auditing client site backends</li>
</ul>
