  2. That does not seem unusual. It's taking .25 seconds, which is more than other plugins on the site, but is not excessive considering the processing that Gravity Forms needs to do.

  3. Thanks Chris.
    And if we stop tracking (if there is a way) do you think it will improve this result?

  4. I'm not sure what you mean about 'tracking'. Can you explain?

  5. That's the "view number" and "conversion" for each page in wich you can see the form.
    I'm not sure to use the right term. I use a French website with Gravity translated.

    There isn't a way to turn off such tracking currently, but even if there were, the performance gain would be negligible. The plugin isn't really using much resources in the grand scheme of things. I don't think you need to worry too much about trying to further optimize it.
