# oEmbed – Bizarre behaviour

 * We upgraded from 4.7.2 to 4.8.2 and we’re seeing some very weird behaviour.
 * We were getting update_post_meta spikes and couldn’t figure it out. Eventually,
   I started checking random posts in our DB. One post, with no oEmbeds, has 87 
   embeds associated it in the post_meta table.
 * Any idea what would cause this behaviour?

 * Is that post live on the internet? Can you post a link?
 * Can you list some of the embeds in the DB? What’s their meta_key values? That
   might help other answer your question.
