Matomo WP Connection: HTTP vs PHP API
-
Hello. I was wondering if there's a difference between the HTTP vs PHP API connection types in WP-Piwik plugin in terms of speed & resources.
The HTTP API requires you to input the HTTP path (link) to your Matomo app. While the PHP API wants the path to the installation. My logic is that the PHP API should be faster and save some resources since it's communicating within the network. If I'm correct, any idea what the default path for Matomo would be or how I can find out?
Thanks!

@humptydumpty since each app is within a container, I'd say HTTP.
PHP API would be more for bare-bones type setups.
