 * Hi
    In the WordPress admin dashboard The EDD product item edit page takes about
   40 seconds to load. The other parts of the WordPress admin open quickly, only
   editing the EDD item is slow.
 * I installed the Query Monitor plugin. And in the Slow Query section, an item (
   WP_Query->get_posts) is displayed.
 * ————————–
 *     ```
       SELECT wp_posts.ID
       FROM wp_posts
       LEFT JOIN wp_postmeta
       ON ( wpaz_posts.ID = wp_postmeta.post_id )
       LEFT JOIN wp_postmeta AS mt1
       ON ( wp_posts.ID = mt1.post_id
       AND mt1.meta_key = '_edd_product_type' )
       WHERE 1=1
       AND ( ( wp_postmeta.meta_key = '_edd_product_type'
       AND wp_postmeta.meta_value != 'bundle' )
       OR mt1.post_id IS NULL )
       AND wp_posts.post_type = 'download'
       AND ((wp_posts.post_status = 'publish'
       OR wp_posts.post_status = 'future'
       OR wp_posts.post_status = 'draft'
       OR wp_posts.post_status = 'private'))
       GROUP BY wp_posts.ID
       ORDER BY wp_posts.post_title ASC
       LIMIT 0, 30
       ```

 * I reinstalled and activated Easy Digital Download version 2.11.7. The product
   edit page loaded very quickly.
 * But when I install and activate the next version 3.0 and later, the loading speed
   of the product edit is slow.
