Fix Slow Laravel Application
Your Laravel app is slow and you don't know why. Pages take forever, users complain, conversions drop. I find the bottlenecks and fix them.
Sound Familiar?
Pages take 5+ seconds to load
Database queries timing out
High server CPU/memory usage
Users abandoning before pages load
Error logs full of timeout warnings
How I Can Help
Full performance audit and profiling
Fix N+1 query problems with eager loading
Add intelligent caching for expensive operations
Optimize database indexes
Move heavy tasks to background queues
Set up monitoring to prevent future issues
Slow applications are usually death by a thousand cuts. Not one big problem, but dozens of small ones: N+1 queries, missing indexes, no caching, synchronous operations that should be async.
I start with profiling. Laravel Debugbar, database query logs, and actual performance monitoring. Numbers, not guesses.
Then systematic fixes: eager load relationships, add strategic caching, index the right columns, queue the heavy stuff. Each change measured.
Most applications see 50-80% improvement. Some go from 10 second page loads to under a second.

What Clients Say
"Stu delivers. Quick turnaround, high quality, no fuss. He embeds into the team properly - standups, Teams, the lot - and he's been ahead of the curve on AI tooling, both in the apps we build and in how he works. Reliable, fast, and genuinely good to work with."
"We've worked with Stu for nearly ten years. When we sell a build we can't handle in-house, he's the call. Joins our Slack, matches our standards, delivers under our name. Clients never know. That's not something you get from a random contractor."
"Stu hired me and gave me a baptism of fire within AWS and infrastructure. Years later, I'm leading a DevOps team of eight. He's technically brilliant, but what I appreciated most was how he explained things - never made me feel stupid, always made time. We still help each other out regularly."
