sslverify=false on Octolize requests

• This means SSL certificate verification is disabled, which is not recommended.
• Could be a plugin issue (insecure practice) or a server issue where CA certs are missing or misconfigured.

Redundant requests to Octolize

• The call to https://octolize.com is happening twice in a short timeframe.
• This may indicate the plugin is poorly optimized or running update checks on every admin page load or cron run.

API call timing isn’t excessive

• These API calls are quick (all under 1.3 seconds).
• Total time across all 6 calls is ~2.7 seconds, so it’s not a huge delay by itself.
