VaultPress clutters wp_options with redundant data and slows down websites

  • On several customer sites, I notice that vaultpress populates the wp_options tables with hundreds of multiple megabyte large entries. All begins with _vp_ai_ping_%

    This leads to wp_options tables that have more than 500MB in size. This slows down the entire system on small hosting plans.

    Please fix this and create an automatic clean up routine for users who are affected by this issue.

    Cheers
    René

  • Hi René,

    VaultPress does add those entries to the wp_options table, but we’ve added a limit in version 1.9.6 that’s meant to keep the size in check.

    Would you please reach out to us through our contact form so that we can take a look at these sites for you? Thanks!

    Rene, thanks a lot for this post, we were having the same issue as you described, our wp_option table ballooned to 550 MB.

    It was all because of _vp_ai_ping_% VaultPress entries.

    @elveez I am glad that this information was helpful for you.

    @tmmbecker These sites were customer sites and I do not have access to them any longer.
