Background of the issue:
I am trying to resolve an issue where WPML is running multiple duplicate queries, causing database locking errors. I found a support thread titled 'WPML Causing Backend Slowness and Duplicated Queries' that suggests deleting or truncating the icl_background_task database table as a temporary fix.

Symptoms:
WPML is running multiple duplicate queries, leading to database locking errors.

Questions:
Is there a permanent solution to prevent WPML from running duplicate queries and causing database locking?

Hi,

Thank you for contacting the support. Meanwhile this ticket is attended by one of my colleagues, unfortunately so far this is (https://wpml.org/errata/wpml-causing-backend-slowness-and-duplicated-queries/) the only available temporary solution.

However, it is due release with the next major WPML version. I'll recommend subscribing to the comments of the said errata for an update.

Regards.
