Title: High usage Last modified: July 20, 2021 --- # High usage * [andrew](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adivirus/) * (@adivirus) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/high-usage/) * Hello, anyone noticed high mysql usage after last update? I updated to version 2.2.0 and mysql usage gone crazy, 600% CPU usage on mysql so my server started to lag with high usage. Once I managed to deactivate the plugin everything went to normal.. I decided to go back to version 2.1.21 and everything looks normal. I use the plugin on a busy site so after the last update the entire server went crazy on high cpu usage, please fix this soon as possible.. - This topic was modified 4 years, 10 months ago by [andrew](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adivirus/).

I had to completely uninstall Ultimate Member, re-install it and then go back to the old version. * Quite frustrating. * Plugin Contributor [Champ Camba](https://wordpress.org/support/users/champsupertramp/) * (@champsupertramp) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/high-usage/#post-14683218) * Hi [@adivirus](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adivirus/) * Could you please tell us how do you check the CPU usage? Are you using plugins to trace the bottlenecks? If so, could you please share the screenshot so we can investigate the issue? * Regards, * Thread Starter [andrew](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adivirus/) * (@adivirus) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/high-usage/#post-14683313) * [@champsupertramp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/champsupertramp/) I did it with **top** command in ssh then once I deactivated the plugin the load began to decrease. It reached 1 Min Load Avg to 150 so all the sites on the server were unresponsive or loaded very slow. I will try to check mysql log somehow maybe I can extract something and let you know. * Plugin Contributor [Champ Camba](https://wordpress.org/support/users/champsupertramp/) * (@champsupertramp) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/high-usage/#post-14683452) * Hi [@adivirus](https://wordpress.org/support/users/adivirus/) * Could you please contact us via [team@ultimatemember.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/high-usage/team@ultimatemember.com?output_format=md) so we can have a closer look at this issue? * Please include the topic URL in the email message. * Regards, * [dmartini](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dmartini/) * (@dmartini) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/high-usage/#post-14707355) * I was experiencing this same issue. After deactivating Ultimate member (and related plugins), my CPU usage has normalized. It was pegged at 100% usage and my website would 504 time-out. * [tprigas](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tprigas/) * (@tprigas) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/high-usage/#post-14711308) * Hi! * I’m experiencing this same problem on a dedicated server. Had to deactivate the plugin too. Will try to downgrade to previous version to see if that can solve the problem and wait for the fix. * Plugin Contributor [Champ Camba](https://wordpress.org/support/users/champsupertramp/) * (@champsupertramp) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/high-usage/#post-14718130) * Could you please try this pre-release version of Ultimate Member?
