The translations reduces speed of WordPress.
For localized WordPress the loading time of translation files accounts for 30% of the entire processing time (less or more 40 milliseconds per page).
For each translation file, WordPress unpacks it and then everyone will be converted in an “Translation_Entry” object. This process, repeated at each page view, is a waste time and resource.
You can make this process 3 times faster by just installing this plugin. This plugin offers a caching solution using the WordPress standard cache mechanism that reduces this effects on performance.
Configurations are not required! You just have to install it and after the plugin does it all, none further action it’s required.
This plugin is very light: only 5 kB.

This plugin ensures that any text coming from a translation file (<code>.po</code> or <code>.mo</code>) is run through an escaping function before it is output to the user.
Escaping refers to the modification of the text so that special control characters do not have an effect (for example <code><</code> in HTML).
Example: If an original text does not contain HTML, then a translated text should not be allowed to contain HTML either. Thus, an HTML link introduced by a translator should have no effect because this was not intended by the developer.
This plugin is in the proof-of-concept stage, it was created to test if the escaping of translated text can be handled in a general way, whether it severely affects the performance of a site, and if it breaks things.
For text without HTML, the text is sent through <code>esc_html()</code>, for text containing HTML tags, it is sent through <code>wp_kses()</code> which is provided with a list of allowed HTML tags and attributes, derived from the original string.
Thus this plugin tries to show a generic way of how to make sure that translated text is escaped. This is something that can eventually be ported to core.

Secure Gettext

Escapes translated text before it gets output. This adds an extra security layer around translated text.
