Our ISP has just had to clean up some SQL and purged over 1 gb of transient data. They said the following: event-espresso-core-reg is the plugin causing all the transient data entries and seems to have been installed around February 17th. The also identified this particular code:
event-espresso-core-reg/core/EE_Session.core.php: return set_transient( ‘ee_ssn_’ . $this->_sid, $session_data, $this->_expiration ) ? TRUE : FALSE;
I recall around that time a new version of EE4 that did not display correctly in IE so you provided some code to add to a custom CSS, which we did. We had also had an authentication issue that was corrected around the same time. We are currently running EE 4.6.8p. I have not updated to the newest, since we had such difficulty with the last update and are currently running registration for an event that we do not want to interrupt. Can you shed some light on these transient data entries? Is this excessive or normal activity for EE? Is there something added or set incorrectly? Thank you.

Hi there,
The old transients were from older versions of EE4. There was a garbage collection feature that should have removed all those. If you look in the wp_options table now, are new transients being added that have ee_ssn_ in the option name?

The IT folks say that there is something in there now, but I can’t show you without cutting and pasting the lines. Here’s the first and last of 21 lines out of the file:
| 1550925 | _transient_timeout_ee_ssn_c7bb37488279991a8cafa07eed920d2f | 2850791731 | no |
1551030 | _transient_timeout_ee_ssn_0cd25b0bf606c7283874fbaf11f0832e | 2850821564 | no |
They also asked about whether the option value is the expiry time?

Further explanation from the ISP:
He had purged all the transient data. What I sent previously is from today only.
Just as a comparison here a complete list of todays transients timeouts [list not included due to limitations here], including some from the google analytics plugins.
Everythin except _transient_timeout_ee_ssn% have expiration times in the near future. (current unix time is 1425413299).
The ee ssn are about double everything else putting them 45 years in the future. (unix time started Jan 1 1970)
