Hello, I have set a new site up with Variation Swatches Pro. I have found it is making the site very slow with page loads as long as sixteen seconds. Even pages not using the products are affected. My WP_Debug log shows the following error:

I have had to disable Variation Swatches. The conflict is with a theme called Rey. I noticed that if I switch to Storefront, it also runs more slowly than normal with Variation Swatches enabled.
