Admin too slow

    Not sure why, but each time I try uploading media it will take so long to upload each image (as if cache is being cleared for each image). I tried 10 images and it took 30 mins ~ these images are 150kbs or less.

    Performance was also slow when updating blog posts.

    Which settings am I getting wrong? I am on an Ngnix and have no other performance plugin. Disabling Super Page Cache fixed all my problems.

    Hi @goody317,

    Thanks for sharing those details. Uploading media shouldn’t take that long, and slow backend performance is definitely not expected.

    Let’s try to narrow down what’s going on:

    • Can you share your Super Page Cache settings? Especially any cache-clearing triggers—like media uploads or post updates—that might be impacting the admin.
    • Is object caching enabled on your server? If not (e.g. Redis or Memcached), that could slow backend operations.
    • Could you install the Query Monitor plugin and check if specific requests (like media uploads or post saves) are unusually resource-intensive?
    • What PHP version and memory limit are you using? Older PHP versions or low memory can make admin tasks sluggish.

    Super Page Cache is designed to accelerate frontend delivery; if it’s affecting admin, it’s usually related to cache invalidation hooks or server-level configurations. Once we understand your setup better, we can help you optimize without disabling the plugin entirely.

    Looking forward to your reply.

    Best regards,
