How Scalability Pro differs from NitroPack

All plugins from Super Speedy Plugins share a SQL-first architecture and an uncompromising focus on performance — and Scalability Pro is no different. Here is what sets it apart:

Your site was fast when it was small. Now archive pages, imports and wp-admin screens are waiting on the database. Scalability Pro adds the indexes WordPress leaves out, stops it counting rows nobody reads, and defers the work that turns an import into an overnight job.

How to choose between NitroPack and Scalability Pro?

For stores where page speed translates directly into revenue, the comparison between NitroPack and Scalability Pro is worth examining carefully. Scalability Pro's SQL-first design means performance is built into the architecture rather than bolted on afterwards. Every release is tested against a one-million-product WooCommerce catalogue, so performance scales with your store rather than against it. Try it on your staging environment using the free trial — you will see the difference immediately.

This plugin made the websites for my clients quite faster, something other "speed" plugins couldn't do. If you need one "speed" plugin, it's this one! You only need to keep in mind that to achieve this, you switch off some calculations and some options you might need. So you have to read carefully the description of what the option does.

I ordered the WPI Performance Plugin and I´m absolutly impressed. I never thought that I can get that speed on my site. I´m planing to build more sites and shure I will buy the WPI Performance Plugin for that sites too.

What's new in Scalability Pro?

6.38.0 (30th October 2026)

  • *Alter main query to use EXISTS rather than LEFT JOIN* leaves pages Super Speedy Filters serves from its own index to Super Speedy Filters, so they no longer carry an extra product visibility check.

6.37.11 (30th October 2026)

  • Fixed database errors about missing `scalability_pro_post_count_cache` and `scalability_pro_transient_cache` tables after activating Scalability Pro with WP-CLI: activation creates the cache tables before anything uses them.

6.37.10 (29th October 2026)

  • Updated super-speedy-settings to 1.14.3: update downloads now send the licence key in a request header instead of the download URL.

6.37.9 (29th October 2026)

  • Fixed native WordPress search running slower with Scalability Pro's indexes installed on large stores: the `wpi_scalability_pro_sitemaps` index now leads with `post_type` and is rebuilt automatically after updating.

6.37.8 (29th October 2026)

  • Reworded the *Alter main query to use EXISTS rather than LEFT JOIN* description: it changes how the SQL is written, never which products are shown.
