I have some modules that I'm not going to use. E.g Temando_Shipping, MSI modules, GraghQl modules,...

Should I disable them using config.php or should I remove them from the codebase using composer replace?

Which one is the better approach and has a better performance result?

  • Better performance is to remove github.com/yireo/magento2-replace-all but you will have issues to work though every time you add or remove extension or upgrade core.

  • Give it a try on a test vanilla store with sample data github.com/DominicWatts/Benchmark

  • Biggest issue for me was MSI. Early versions of MSI really slowed down some stores in dev magento.stackexchange.com/questions/292214/… fortunately recent upgrades / patches have fixed some of the issues

  • @DominicXigen Thanks, I've used this package github.com/yireo/magento2-replace-inventory before. I'm just wondering how fast it is comparing to disabling the modules, thoughts?

  • Using that benchmark script I got about 30% improvement on a demo store on saving products. But I implemented on an actual project and as soon as I started adding third party extensions I had problems. But I saw about a 20% improvement on applying MSI upgrade which included their patches. The amazon payment modules stood out for adding noticable load but I could never figure out why.

Disabling the Unused modules is the best approach and it has good performance result. Removing them completely from code base may have unintended side effects.

  • Thanks. How do you compare the performance between disabling the modules vs removing them?
