Hi
Having an issue since upgrading from 4,3,6 to 4,4,8 and have now upgraded to 4.4.9 to see if that resolved the problem.
When the topic list is refreshed or you refresh your browser or go back to the main forum where recent topics is displayed, the MySQL CPU goes up to 54% - 70%, this in turn is increasing the load on the server. Usually MYSQL CPU ticks over 0.5 to 1%. As forum members online increase so does the load on the forum. Its also making the main forum loading slightly slower than normal. Disabling Recent Topics plugin restores MYSQL back to normal and forum loading.
When the forum was running 4.3.6 there were no issues with MYSQL or CPU load even having it set with a low ajax setting and many members online, I have tried re-installing, disabling all other plugins and applications. adjusting ajax seconds and its disabled from guest view, also only shows 3 topics.
My members really like this plugin so I am hoping there is a fix for this issue.
Thanks for you time
