Site Health: Autoloaded options could affect performance

[123nadav]

Hello guys how are you?

I notice from the new version of WordPress 6.6.1, the site health start to shows Autoloaded error.

Now, i checked the database with phpmyadmin and LS-CACHE Plugin (i have an openlitespeed server).

My Autoloaded list is not even 600kb (screenshot):

I look on the site health and in the link:

​https://developer.wordpress.org/advanced-administration/performance/optimization/#autoloaded-options

Error should appear inside the SITE HEALTH when you have 1mb of Autoload tables.

I think we maybe have some bug here in the WordPress 6.6.1.

By the way:

I tried to delete plugin and turn off to remove the Autoload tables. but error still shows inside the Site Health section.

I open a ticket in the WordPress forum as well:

@123nadav could you please share your site health check screenshot?

Have you clear server cache after removing the options? Please do it then check the site health again.

| Error should appear inside the SITE HEALTH when you have 1mb of Autoload tables.

That 1MB is the size of total autoloaded option value not the threshold (limit) for the autoload option, The threshold is 800kb.

I have tested and it working fine for me.

As you see in my screenshot my Autoload is 635kb

I have 3 identical websites its got triggered in all of them:

By the way, I’ve removed plugins and reduced the autoload size even further below 623KB, yet it still shows a critical warning.

[mukesh27]

Thanks @123nadav for the details.

Per ​https://ibb.co/8D19W9c it shows that 455 options are autoloaded and as per your DB screenshot it was 439 ​https://imgbb.com/9HD3SQb. The 16 options is not shows by your host that's why it shows the Site health notice.

Contact your host for more details.

I am hosting my website myself on Google Cloud using an Ubuntu machine.
I can access phpMyAdmin and have deleted plugins, but nothing has helped.

Additionally, I deleted transients and revisions from the database, and now it's even smaller (619.41K). However, the Site Health section shows different information than what's in my actual database (447 AUTOLOAD OPTIONS VS 428 AUTOLOAD OPTIONS)

But even with more 19 autoload options, i dont believe you pass the 800kb...
Have a way to see the 19 autoloads Site Health read?

For the record:
I pretty sure is connected to "CORE" autoloads, this because this error raised up after the 6.6.1 WordPress update.

If you want to check the total options that are autoloaded in your database, run the following query (update the table prefix 'wp' as per your DB setup):

SELECT option_name, option_value FROM wp_options WHERE autoload IN ('yes', 'on', 'auto-on', 'auto')

Feel free to re-open if you have any questions.

talked with LiteSpeed support and we checked the wp_options table. The database shows the autoload count is similar to the LiteSpeed plugin (426 autoloads).

The Site Health section shows 455, and this is not correct. Here are the screenshots:

It looks like the LS-CACHE plugin is correct:

I really don't know why the Site Health section shows 455:

@123nadav Update your DB query where clause WHERE autoload IN ('yes', 'on', 'auto-on', 'auto') you only check yes value.

[57920] for more details why the new value introduced in autoload. The Litespeed plugin needs to update that query too to get proper list for autoload options.

[123nadav]

OK, i tried your query in the console option inside phpmyadmin but anytime i get error:
​https://ibb.co/QbgY4Lt

we try the first query it was working properly.

you maybe have idea? or a diffrent query i can put in the console option inside phpmyadmin?

[mukesh27]

@123nadav The issue comes from Litespeed plugin. I have open tracking issue for Litespeed plugin - ​https://github.com/litespeedtech/lscache_wp/issues/717

Please check it for more details.
