Samybaxy’s Hyperdrive makes WordPress sites 65-75% faster by intelligently loading only the plugins needed for each page.
Instead of loading 120 plugins for every page, we load only 12-45 plugins for the current page – automatically, without breaking anything.
Traditional WordPress loads ALL plugins on EVERY page:

| PHP | 8.2+ required |
🏗️ Architecture Overhaul: Whitelist to Blacklist Model
* 🔄 Breaking: MU-loader now uses blacklist architecture — loads everything by default, only restricts known-heavy plugins
* ✨ New: Automatic restrictable plugin detection based on ecosystem analysis
* ✨ New: DB-driven restriction rules — no more hardcoded keyword-to-plugin mappings
* ✨ New: Lightweight plugins (user-switching, analytics, utilities) always load automatically
* ✨ New: New plugins auto-load on frontend without code changes
* ✨ New: Ecosystem child detection via dependency map and slug prefix matching
* 🔧 Improved: Plugin scanner builds restrictable set on activation/deactivation
* 🔧 Improved: Admin override support for manual restrictable/unrestricted lists
* 🛡️ Safety: No restrictable set = no filtering (safe fallback)
* 🛡️ Safety: Search pages load all ecosystems to prevent missing results
* 🐛 Fixed: user-switching plugin no longer filtered out
* 🐛 Fixed: WooCommerce extensions (subscriptions, coupons) load on my-account page
* 🐛 Fixed: AffiliateWP addons load on affiliate/partner pages
