FASTER IMPORTS not working
Jan R. asked 3 years ago
Hello, we bought the plugin scalability pro to speed up our site. We import a large amount of data daily via wpallimport. Unfortunately, the FASTER IMPORTS - OPTIMISING WP_POSTMETA function has not had any noticeable effects so far. Why is that? I don't see any other settings in the backend. Can you help me there?

- Create the indexes with the create index button
- Enable the option to ‘defer term counts’
If your speed hasn’t improved, your biggest bottleneck was not coming from slow SQL – that means it’s likely coming from generating image sizes.
There’s an update coming to Scalability Pro to adjust image sizes created on imports per post-type, e.g. to only create 3 images if importing products.
In the meantime, this guide can help if that’s your issue:
