Speed Booster Pack is a WordPress speed optimization plugin available on the official WordPress plugin repository. After maintaining the original version for a period, my client and I decided to rewrite it from scratch to build a more robust, maintainable, and feature-rich product.
What I Built
- Complete rewrite of the plugin from scratch — cleaner architecture, better performance, and a modern settings interface.
- Disk caching feature to serve cached HTML files directly without hitting PHP or the database.
- OpenLiteSpeed Server caching integration.
- Database optimization feature to clean up post revisions, transients, and other overhead.
- Cloudflare API integration — purge Cloudflare cache directly from the WordPress dashboard.
- Dozens of other frontend and server-side performance features.
About
This project deepened my understanding of WordPress internals, PHP performance patterns, and web caching strategies. Building a plugin used by thousands of websites required writing reliable, backwards-compatible code with careful attention to server compatibility.
