Yoast page sitemap loading time issue

Hi @asimmanj,

It could be due to execution time of sitemap exceeded. You can limit the number of sitemap entries by using the filter wpseo_sitemap_entries_per_page. Here follows example https://yoast.com/help/xml-sitemaps-in-the-wordpress-seo-plugin/#limit code to limit the max entries to 100.

It’s related to Divi theme. It runs all shortcodes inside pages created by Divi builder. It could be extensive operation if you have a lot of pages. More details – https://github.com/Yoast/wordpress-seo/issues/12304

Now limited the max entries to 100 and it’s better than before but not as faster as expected.

Thanks for your help
