Dear Rolf, thank you so much for your kind follow-up. Our original license expired almost exactly year ago (with no updates we didn’t see the point in updating it). When we encountered the problem with a slowdown we updated the license. And then yes, we did hit “Check license” and click “Save” and there was no error message at that stage (the old message about the expired license disappeared). We deactivated the plugin, which speeded up our site, and then activated the plugin, which slowed down our site.
We try to keep our number of plugins to a minimum so we decided to stop using Google News Advanced for now.
