# 502 Errors in Admin Panel

 * I built a new site between 2/1/15 and 3/15/15, with WordPress SEO running as 
   an active plugin as I built the site.
 * Once the pages were ready, I went into the SEO plugin and set up the standard
   elements – Title Tags, Meta Descriptions, etc…
 * I also added absolute self-referencing canonicals to each search-applicable page
   via the SEO plugin as well.
 * After those updates were in place, the fast speed of my admin panel completely
   vanished. I’ve been through the steps of deactivating each plugin and I’ve confirmed
   that WordPress SEO is the culprit.
 * The issue is so extreme that I now have trouble updating pages. I usually receive
   a 502 Error when the SEO plugin is active. When I deactivate the SEO plugin, 
   the admin panel goes back to being lightning fast again.
 * I don’t mind if the SEO plugin slows down my admin panel a bit, but this seems
   far too extreme, given that I can barely update a page without getting a 502 
   error.
 * Does anyone know if any of the settings I’ve created in the SEO plugin tend to
   lead to issues like this? I’ve really only changed the core SEO page elements
   and added canonicals…
 * Thanks in advance!
