I tried the scan again. The scan terminated after 7 or so hours. It once again said that it terminated due to a possible infinite loop.

Here is the last several lines of the log:

Any thoughts?

Thank you,

I am trying to run the scan again now. Hopefully with 8 hours it will finish. I don’t think there is anything particularly different about our site. We are an engineering/building inspection firm. We have a lot of project photos, but I have optimized most, if not all of them, for website use. Our plugins are all updated and I removed all unnecessary themes. There are no other WordPress sites running through this one and no additional WordPress installations. Would it help to know what themes and plugins we have installed?

Thank you for your assistance!

I apologize for not getting back to you sooner. I was finally able to follow the steps you sent today. The scan failed again because it timed out. It reached the 6 hour time limit.

Please let me know your thoughts on this.
Thank you!
