VIP Addons Wutime - Top Contributors of the Month v2.2.10

The original add-on stored all contributor data in simpleCache, which only clears on server reboot — leading to memory bloat and stale data. This version uses more efficient, persistent caching methods without bloating memory or DB connections.
