How many plugins are you using?

Question

My site is having about 54 plugins at present as I removed a few as they were not functioning on 1.8. Earlier it was above 60. Plus a few additional scripts in ckeditor etc. Also having CSS edits and changes in codes. I wish all these were in the core itself.

Answer 1

I use 22 plugins. If you concerned about your site's performance, prefer plugins that do not have any js, img, css files, and also prefer plugins with less mysql queries. And note that most of custom-made plugins are not optimized in these terms.
