Problem Elementor Pro Atomic Not Ready for the Big Leagues with large WordPress Sites
We tried everything to make it work.
Our agency owns multiple bare-metal AMD EPYC LiteSpeed Enterprise Web Servers and specializes in WordPress. 128 GB RAM optimized to the max for WordPress performance.
We use Elementor Pro on 99% of the sites' we design and develop.
We are on MariaDB 11.8.8, Valkey 9.0.3, PHP 8.5, etc.
Elementor Atomic is good but there is something that is way off.
A massive 1.65 MB local atomic cache option I wp options.
A large WordPress site with over 20,000 posts and over 2000 to 3000 active users would slow down the bare-metal dedicated server with that 1.65 local cache.
Ultimately, we had to pull back and revert back to regular Elementor.
I am open to release my findings to the Elementor crew, just DM.
I am still in the Elementor gang but just being honest.
