    It looks like the wp_mail_smtp_send_usage_data is overloading our database CPU.
    We’ve got a super powerful database CPU and this query is killing our website:
    SELECT a.action_id FROM wp_actionscheduler_actions a WHERE a.hook=’wp_mail_smtp_send_usage_data’ AND a.status=’pending’ ORDER BY scheduled_date_gmt ASC LIMIT 1

    Any ideas?
    We’ve disabled the plugin briefly and the problem stopped.
    Please help.

    Hi @danmillercoding,

    I see that you’ve already been helped, but I want to include the information here in case anyone comes across the same or a similar issue.

    The purpose of SendUsageTask class is to collect analytics data about server setup and some configuration data (only boolean values without any customer info) that allows us to improve our plugin.

    Here is a doc page about usage tracking with more info.

    Thanks!
