    Hello, I have a massive performance issue in the backend since switching to a newer PHP version.
    Saving drafts takes up to 10 seconds, and loading the pages overview is also extremely slow. Even just calling up a textbox to edit text takes up to 10 seconds.
    – I am working with WordPress 6.8.2 and the Enfold theme version 7.1.2.
    – I’ve observed the issue on MySQL database version 8.0.36. I tested with PHP 8.2.29 and PHP 8.3.24 without any improvement.
    – I only have 4 plugins, which I have all deactivated for testing purposes. The problem persisted.
    – My server settings are more than sufficient. The PHP memory limit is set to -1 (unlimited), and the max_input_vars is at 5000.
    – I have optimized the database, but this did not solve the issue.
    – The error disappears as soon as I activate a default theme.

    What can i do?

    Hey Mapod,

    Thank you for the inquiry.

    What are the actual specifications of your server (RAM, CPU)? Please post the login details in the private field so we can investigate the issue further. In the meantime, try to switch to PHP 8.1, and enable the error logs in the wp-config.php file to see if it catches any errors.

    define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );
define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );
define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false );

    Best regards,
    Ismael
