 * I have issue with MySQL server (too many process) and it is related with autoload“
   no” set in table “wp_options” related to WP Commerce plugins:
 * First I have un-optimized:
 * : +———-+———-+
    | COUNT(*) | autoload | +———-+———-+ | 198705 | no | | 3286 | yes
   | +———-+———-+
 * Then added to increase performance on VPS (512 MB RAM + 512 MB SWAP):
 * ALTER TABLE wp_options ADD INDEX (‘autoload’);
 * +———-+———-+
    | COUNT() | autoload | +———-+———-+ | 198871 | no | | 3286 | yes 
   | +———-+———-+ 2 rows in set (0.56 sec)
 * After index it’s slightly inreased performance.
 * After added index it’s increased performance but, constantly added into wp_options
   data with huge list.
 * Then, I’ve installed this plugin [https://wordpress.org/plugins/artiss-transient-cleaner/installation/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/artiss-transient-cleaner/installation/)
   to clean-up autoloads:
 * mysql> SELECT COUNT(), autoload FROM wp_options GROUP BY autoload;
    +———-+———-
   + | COUNT() | autoload | +———-+———-+ | 624 | no | | 3131 | yes | +———-+———-+ 
   2 rows in set (0.01 sec)
 * After 2 days I’ve checked wp_options table and this result:
 * +———-+———-+
    | COUNT(*) | autoload | +———-+———-+ | 232526 | no | | 3135 | yes
   | +———-+———-+ 2 rows in set (0.22 sec)
 * Example latest query:

 * This is transients, but this querying makes overloading VPS server and I’m not
   sure what is right way to do. Disable this plugin and use some another Commerce
   WP plugins to disable this overloading or migrate to MariaDB.

 * Seems like something is amiss in your configuration, what is showing jsut should
   not be happening.
 * I have checked my running configuration of WP eCommerce and the number of options
   and transients are much lower than what you are showing in your post. See below.

 * What version of WPeC do you have installed? What version of WordPress?
