Event Espresso runs EXTREMELY slow

Our site (www.checkoutri.com) is one of only 7 sites on the VPS, and as of lately, it runs extremely slow. The rest of the sites don’t seem to have any issues.

Any ideas?

Hi there,

This is only a guess: Can you check the wp _options table to see what’s the biggest option records that get autoloaded?

If you know how to use phpmyadmin or another database tool for your VPS, you’d do a query like this:

SELECT option_name, CHAR_LENGTH (option_value) as Char_Length FROM wp_options WHERE autoload='yes' ORDER BY CHAR_LENGTH(option_value) DESC;

If there’s a specific option that gets listed there that’s upwards of 1MB in characters then that might be what’s slowing down the site.

ee_core_routes has a char_length of 2014727. That’s the #1 entry. The #2 entry is ee_active_messengers has a char_length of only 25606.

How do we correct this issue. ee_core_routes has close to 2MB in characters.

Thank you for your help 🙂

You can actually delete that ee_core_routes option. It’s not used, and should have been deleted but somehow wasn’t deleted.

just delete the table or delete it in the code? If in the code, where?

Thanks

You delete the single option from the options table. You do not delete the table, and you do not delete any code from anywhere.

deleted that record from the options table – running faster. Still think it could be faster, but better for now

thank you!
