v2.0.4

2.0.4

Our first public release. We jam econo.

What It Does

Blocks comment spam using 64,000+ known spam terms from Grant Hutchinson's blocklist, updated daily.

Why It's Fast

WordPress core stores blocklist terms in wp_options. With Grant's list, that's 800KB+ autoloaded on every request. We Spam Econo uses a custom database table instead. That means zero autoload overhead.

Metric	We Spam Econo	WordPress Core
Average check time	1.3 ms	108 ms
Throughput	766 checks/sec	9 checks/sec

83x faster.

Requirements

• WordPress 6.0+
• PHP 8.3+
