How can we decrease the app loading time?

[Anastasia Nikitina]

Hello, everyone!

We are a team who is working on Jira plugin.

Our plugin allows to accomulate all the standard information (like projects, sprints, issues, assignees etc) and display it in intuitive colored way.

Recently we faced with the following problem - time necessary for the app loading was doubled. The first version timee was about 8 seconds and now the initial loading takes around 16 seconds.

The main differences between versions are

- adding a new request to check project type (company or team managed)

- adding a new page

We have checked hypothesis about addons bad influence on the loading time, but performed tests showed that mentioned addons increased loading time on 2 seconds only.

Also we have noticed that each Jira's response takes about 800-900ms (previously they were faster)

Is there a way how we can speed it up?
