our ttfb on uncached pages have gone up very much
hidden link

we looked a many things, and we don't have render blocking and we have cdn and redis and critical css

we ended up getting to autoload options for the size of 10mb

we have seen this at _wpml_cms_nav_cache - 6mb
wcml_trbl_translated_variations - 1 MB

here is our webpagetest

1. can we do autoload=no on wpml_cms_nav_Cache? OR disable the cache for wpml_cms_nav_Cache?

2. is wcml_trbl_ranslated_variations mandatory?

Hello there,

Welcome to WPML support, I'd be happy to help you with this.

- Are you using the latest versions of WPML plugins?
- Which version of PHP/MYSQL are you using?

You can easily send this information using the Debug information settings from WPML.

Could you please go to WPML > Support > Debug Information and give me the information in the next reply? You can read the detailed instructions here:
http://wpml.org/faq/provide-debug-information-faster-support/

Both mentioned actions are required. I would like to know the ttfb with and without WPML, can you do this test and share it with us?

Further, If you disable all non-related WPML plugins, switch to one of default themes, the problem persists or not?

NOTE:
+ Make a backup (both files and database) for your site before updating/proceeding anything (Always a good practice!).

Look forward to your reply.

Thanks

we have identified with wpintense scalablity pro team the slow query that is causing us slow TTFB

do you have a solution for this maybe?

SELECT wpml_translations.translation_id, wpml_translations.element_id, wpml_translations.language_code, wpml_translations.source_language_code, wpml_translations.trid, wpml_translations.element_type FROM lsk_icl_translations wpml_translations JOIN lsk_posts p ON wpml_translations.element_id = p.ID AND wpml_translations.element_type = CONCAT('post_', p.post_type) JOIN lsk_icl_translations tridt ON tridt.element_type = wpml_translations.element_type AND tridt.trid = wpml_translations.trid WHERE tridt.element_id IN (7120333,7120320,7120328,7120349,7120

Hello there,

The query is used widely to select translations for element types. I would like to know more. Are you using some cache plugins?

Can you share the feedback on my previous reply?

Look forward to your reply.

Thanks

Hello,

Thank you for the updates. Currently, you are using older versions of plugins and WordPress. It will also cause the performance and security issues. So is there any specific reason for keeping the older versions?

Do you have a staging site(clone copy of the live site)? Because it will help us to troubleshoot the issue without affecting the live site.

As you saw our backend, we are no kids, so we expect from you don't to give us kids answer about versions
- we have many custom made plugins, again you saw our backend, and thus we have many dependencies , so this is why we don't update every monday and thursday things on our backend

THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE DB QUERY THAT IS NOT OPTIMIZED, we wrote you that the biggest authority in the speed on wordpress, dave from wpintense told you the problem

so our version of wpml or wordpress is not the concern, the concern is to find a more optimized db query for categories

we gave you the query, we also gave you query monitor on our admin

and we also advised that you speak to your 2nd tier support

- did you change anything on our admin by the way, or nothing? because string translation, started not searching for keys
