Removing Autoptimize

    I’ve been having issues with my hosting – my CPU has been sporadically and randomly been maxing out at 100%.

    Looking through my resource usage snapshots most contain a GET call with a duration of between 6-10 seconds.

    The calls are to:

    /wp-content/cache/autoptimize/css/autoptimize_single_ followed by a long string of varying characters with a .css extention.

    I have now deleted the autoptimize directory from /wp-content/cache and also double checked that there ins’t a autoptimize direct in /wp-content/plugins/

    Is there any chance there are any other db reminiscences that need removing to ensure no further GET calls are generated?

    Those are static files (.css) that are served directly by your webserver (created once, served many times) and as such are unlikely to cause CPU-issues 🙂

    They are likely CSS-files that have been excluded from being aggregated (likely theme/ pagebuilder CSS stored in wp-content/uploads or wp-content/cache) and are minified by AO. You can disable that by disabling the “also minify excluded CSS/ JS”-option.

    If you (want to) remove(d) Autoptimize deactivate and uninstall it from the WordPress plugins page, it will clean things up when doing so. The only thing you might still need to do is clear any page cache(s) you might have.

    hope this helps,
    frank
