Hi, today i was hunting the reasons for a really slow admin area on one of my blogs. It loaded whatever page in the admin area with around 10 secs delay. I switched of plugin by plugin to find reasons and noticed when disabling wp-cron-control load times came down to around the half of what they were before (still bad but at least a first step). Anyone alse noticing that big of a heap with wp-cron-control? Any reason why this should happen? I’m a bit stuck. Thanks for helping, Frank https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-cron-control/ Yes, my site admin has started to load really slow. When I disabled “WooThemes Helper” I went from 60s to 14s. When I disabled WP-Cron I went from 14s to 2s. No idea why, I’ll let you know if I find anything. If I remove the following lines, the admin area is behaving: // for all other cases disable wp-cron.php and spawn_cron() by telling the system it's already running if ( !defined( 'DOING_CRON' ) ) define( 'DOING_CRON', true ); Don’t know why, must investigate further. This fixes it, but I’m not sure it’s the right solution: 314: } else { 315: return false; 316: } I found the same issue in many sites using this plugin. It slow down the wp-admin/ of the sites a lot (frontend is not affected). It was running fine for very long time, I think the issue started to happen with WP 4.0, but can’t be totally sure…
