Slow Self-Destruct transient queries on every WP admin page

Dear support,

when this plugin is installed it regularly executes the following queries on every page of WP admin:

UPDATE wp_options
SET option_value = 'timestamp_here'
WHERE option_name = '_transient_timeout_easy_wp_smtp_sd_code'

and

UPDATE wp_options
SET option_value = 'md5_sum_code_here'
WHERE option_name = '_transient_easy_wp_smtp_sd_code'

From looking at the source, this looks like a Self-Destruct security feature, but why load it on every single page of the backend? Why can’t these be restricted to /options-general.php?page=swpsmtp_settings

Best regards,
Andrej
