# high cpu usage processing feed

 * Our google shopping feed is missing product ids. Clicking refresh on the feed
   results in ‘processing 20%’ flashing. No updated feed is created (even after 
   5hrs). Our server shows numerous wpcron jobs created by the plugin with very 
   significant cpu/script usage (40,000 cpu secs and 70,000 scripts). No other wpcron
   jobs are triggered (only this plugin).
 * We’ve disabled wpcron as all our cpu resources have been used by the plugin. 
   Is there any fix to the cpu usage for large feeds, say 3,000 items?
 * Here’s our debug log:

 * Hi rainsey,
 * The plugin should easily be able to process 3000 products. Some users create 
   feeds > that contain 100.000 products. The plugin is designed to not burden the
   CPU too much by processing the products in small batches. For this to work the
   WP-cron needs to be enabled.
 * Are you triggering the WP-cron by an external unix cron script (disabling the
   cron in the wp-config file)? The behaviour you are describing definitely sound
   like it is.
 * Best,
    Eva

 * No real or remote cron enabled. The issue occurs when cron is enabled in the 
   wp-config file (as needed for the plugin to work). Our access logs shows the 
   following for each website visit and it is appears the feed is stuck on step 
   5.
