thousands of queries simultaneously from wp_postmeta

  • Hello, my website was running stable and fast after few days my site speed was decrease and last night my hosting provider suspended my service so i contacted to them and they said:

    “Your account was generating 1000’s of queries simultaneously that were similar to:

    SELECT post_id, meta_key, meta_value FROM wp_postmeta WHERE post_id IN (22726) ORDER BY meta_id ASC

    Which was overloading MySQL and degrading performance on the server, do you know what might have caused this?”

    Can anyone tell me whats going on ???
    reply please

    Well something was trying to return all the metadata associated with post ID 22726 might be worth looking to see what that post is?

    It could be something as simple as one of your posts is incredibly popular and causing issues. It could also be something else less good. Do you have external analytics like Google Analytics or WP.com stats that you can look at?
