Q: Clogged entire CPU
Hello, what is happening with the plugin since it has filled the entire CPU with a million processes, making it impossible to work on the server? Only disabling the plugins brought relief from the background processes that were consuming the entire processor and allowed work to continue. The operator restarted the server and it did nothing; only disabling both plugins enabled further work. Is this huge problem known to you?
Best regards, AdAlbert

Feb 23, 2025A: Hello,
Thank you for reaching out. We’re really sorry to hear about this issue, and we understand how frustrating it must be. Please know that we take performance very seriously, and we'd love to get to the bottom of this as soon as possible.
So far, we haven't received similar reports, and WP ULike is designed to be lightweight and efficient—in fact, all queries in the plugin are cached to avoid excessive database load. However, high CPU usage can sometimes be triggered by:
* A conflict with another plugin that might be running queries or hooks unexpectedly.
* A caching issue, where processes are being repeated due to cache conflicts.
* A large number of simultaneous requests (e.g., bots or unexpected traffic spikes).
* Server-side configurations that may not be optimized for handling certain background processes.
To investigate further, we’d really appreciate it if you could submit a support request with more details. If possible, sending us server logs would help identify whether this is related to SQL performance, a specific function in WP ULike, or an external conflict.
Looking forward to your response. :)
