## Description

Autoload Checker is a WordPress plugin that helps you monitor the total size of 
the autoloaded data in the `wp_options` table of your database. Autoloaded data 
is data that is loaded on every page load, regardless of whether it is needed or
not. This can affect the performance and speed of your site, especially if you had
a lot of plugins installed.

Autoload Checker does not remove any autoloaded data from your database, it only
checks the status and displays it in your WordPress dashboard. You can see the total
size of the autoloaded data, as well as the top autoloaded data entries sorted by
size. This can help you identify which plugins or themes are adding the most autoloaded
data to your database, and decide if you need to optimize them or not.

Autoload Checker is easy to use and does not require any configuration. Just install
and activate the plugin, and you will find the tool on Tools > Autoload Checker.

## Installation

 1. Install Autoload Checker via the plugin directory.
 2. Activate Autoload Checker.
 3. Find the tool on Tools > Autoload Checker.

Does what it says and helps identify auto loaded options and their size. Handy for
clearing and diagnosing the database. Thank you. 🙂

Plugin does exactly what you describe. I found everything I needed to know to delete
in tables. Useless stuff from plugins that didn’t even exist anymore was there. 
Thanks for the great work!

Great plugin to check what parts of your WordPress options have a big size.

Wordpress tells me that the autoload size is 905kb, and your plugin says its 389
kb????
