Benchmark history

This page separates general plugin information from round-specific evidence. Each published round can use a different setup profile, tester set, or configuration scope, so results should be interpreted inside the round where they were measured.

Astra Love Nature Free Plugin Benchmark

Hostinger shared hosting · Astra theme · Love Nature corporate site · free settings only

Setup: Free and built-in options only
Testers: Mobile Lighthouse and PageSpeed Insights, repeated per measured URL.
Version: 2.5.6
Config: basic-recommended

Breeze used a broader free preset in this round

Breeze was measured with its free one-click optimization standard profile rather than activation defaults only. The expert profile was tried and rejected because it broke the lab site. Treat Breeze comparisons as round-scoped, not as default-only behavior.
