 * My site’s resource usage, appears that the site
   is hitting the server’s memory
   limit. And I encountered the 502 Bad Gateway error when updating WordPress or
   publishing new articles, as the site may have run out of available resources 
   at that time.
 * I noticed my site is receiving a
   high number of requests, mostly targeting xmlrpc.
   php, which is a fileused by the Jetpack plugin. This suggests that Jetpack might
   beresponsible for the large volume of incoming hits.
 * I suspect Jetpack isn’t connecting properly or is causing excessive traffic. 
   How can I fix this? Jetpack seems to be overloading or bloating my website causing
   failed Core Web Vitals, and has been hurting my google crawl time so my articles
   do not get indexed or crawled in a timely fashion.
