Why is my View slow to load?

We have found two leading causes that can impact View loading times on the front end:

Encryption Plugins

Encryption plugins like Gravity Forms Encrypted Fields or similar plugins can significantly impact View loading times.

Encrypting and decrypting values are very slow tasks (on purpose!). This doesn't pair well with fast load times on the front end.

Gravity Forms Secure File Download Location

Loading images takes a long time when Gravity Forms Secure File Download Location is enabled. Read this doc on how to disable the setting.
