Possible new problem. Something i have not seen before.

Hello,

I am using 1.5.6c with php 7.4. Site has been working fine since my last post. Lost of customers. This morning i noticed admin moving kinda slow. First i tried on a different connection. but still the same. Customers could place orders just fine. The i looked in the cache folder in root and noticed 3 new files that got made earlier today.



I have never had them in that folder. As you can see from the time stamps they are. I have another zencart install and it doesn't have those files in the cache folder in root. I can't even copy them over and delete them. It gives a

Response: 250 CWD command successful
Error: Critical file transfer error

Why are these here now ? And is this the reason for the slow down ?

Just thought i should add , they come back. even if i delete them.

and i now feel dumb. All this time i thought i was looking in my log file folder. Thats why i had never seen them before. Doesn't explain the slow down on the site backend. But still.

Do you, by chance, have SQL caching enabled in one or both of the site's configure.php files?

/**
 * This is an advanced setting to determine whether you want to cache SQL queries.
 * Options are 'none' (which is the default) and 'file' and 'database'.
 */
define('SQL_CACHE_METHOD', 'none');

zencart 1.5.8
php.8.1.2

I too all of a sudden am experiencing slowness in the admin. I am even getting it on my local site.
I am not sure what is causing this issue but today is the fist time I have experience this.

My fronted works perfectly....

I have this set as define('SQL_CACHE_METHOD', 'none');

I did some test on my local site. I have disabled all plugins and my admin is still slow.
I do not get the SQL files mentioned above so i don't think cache is my issue.
