Cron jobs every minute?

    Hi,
    Today we had a conference call with WPEngine regarding our site using the above-normal amount of CPU usage.
    What they said was the main cause of the CPU usage was the cron jobs running every minute.
    Upon analyzing this log we found that Rank Math and WPForms was the 2 heavy user of cron jobs.
    This data was found in WooCommerce -> Status -> Scheduled Actions

    What can we do about this? It is possible to lower the cron usage of WPForms?

    Best Regards
    Henrik

  • Hi @henkesan – Thank you or your patience here!

    Please know that the ActionScheduler QueueRunner runs every minute to check if there are any scheduled jobs to run.

    However, QueueRunner is a low-profile task that only executes the jobs if it finds them. If no jobs are scheduled, the QueueRunner just uses a tiny bit of resources.

    Hope this helps ??

    Hi @henkesan,

    We haven’t heard back from you in a few days, so I’m going to go ahead and close this thread for now. But if you’d like us to assist further, please feel welcome to continue the conversation.

    Thanks!
