My dedicated server is overloaded due to the ALD plugin. I run a dropshipping business selling accessories for cake bakers. My store is set up to handle a significant volume of traffic, which is why I opted for a dedicated server. However, when the ALD plugin is activated, my website becomes very slow, and I notice high resource usage in my server’s cPanel report. I suspect that the plugin may have a memory leak.

Often plugin imports products that have completely different variations, prices and stock comparing with Aliexpress.

The plugin works intermittently. I can’t rely on this tool because I have to wait weeks while they fix new bugs. Additionally, updates for the plugin have become increasingly rare. It seems that this tool is no longer a priority for the author.

I have installed new plugin version and then get the update notifification and try to install new version too. But both versions don’t import products. They give error that import is not allowed for my account. When I tried to contact teh support, they tried to push me their premium version of plugin. I think import feature should work in free plugin version since I see that in the plugin description here.
