Hi, I just installed a new Wordpress site on a new account. There is a huge lag when a user first attempts to access the wordpress site, or when they haven’t accessed it in more than 30 minutes.
The time to first byte seems to be the culprit, but what’s causing the delay here?
Error Message
Only this was logged in the console:
Cross-Origin Read Blocking (CORB) blocked cross-origin response infinityfree.net/errors/404/ with MIME type text/html.
Other Information
This only happens for Wordpress.
I haven’t touched the Wordpress site. Everything is default.
WP-Cron is usually the cause for this. WP-Cron is an internal system of WordPress that allows WordPress itself, as well as plugins, to execute periodic tasks. Examples include checking for updates or clearing old data. WP-Cron is executed on page load, which means it will take a bit longer to show the page if WordPress needs to execute background tasks.
That’s unrelated. It just means that there is a URL on your page that isn’t found. Usually that’s the favicon.ico.
