Performance Issue : REST API, Loopback request, wp_privacy_delete_old_export_files

What issue or error are you experiencing?

  1. The REST API is one way that WordPress and other applications communicate with the server. For example, the block editor screen relies on the REST API to display and save your posts and pages.

When testing the REST API, an error was encountered:

REST API Endpoint: http://goecotours.local/wp-json/wp/v2/types/post?context=edit
REST API Response: (http_request_failed) cURL error 28: Operation timed out after 10013 milliseconds with 0 bytes received

2-Loopback requests are used to run scheduled events and are also used by the built-in editors for themes and plugins to verify code stability.

The loopback request to your site failed; this means features relying on them are not currently working as expected.
Error: cURL error 28: Operation timed out after 10009 milliseconds with 0 bytes received (http_request_failed)

  1. The scheduled event, wp_privacy_delete_old_export_files, failed to run. Your site still works, but this may indicate that scheduling posts or automated updates may not work as intended.

What steps can be taken to replicate the issue? Feel free to include screenshots, videos, etc

Security Reminder
Local does a pretty good job of scrubbing private info from the logs and the errors it produces; however, there’s always the possibility that something private can come through. Because these are public forums, always review the screenshots you are sharing to make sure there isn’t private info like passwords being displayed.
