🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
Claim worker slots atomically, and stop when no slot is free.
lock_process() has two problems:
- Race on claim. It reads
taken_slots()and later writes a transient.start()sends five loopback requests at the same moment. All five workers can see every slot free, and all five can take slot 1. - Shared fallback slot. When no slot is free, the worker takes slot
WORKERSanyway. That slot already belongs to another worker.
The first worker to finish then deletes the shared transient in unlock_process(), but the other workers are still compressing. This has three effects:
is_processing()undercounts. The cron health check and the end-of-handle()dispatch()then start extra workers, so more thanWORKERScan run at once.- At the end of a run, no attachments are queued and no slot transient remains.
is_running()then returnsfalsewhile images are stillprocessing. pollStatusinsrc/js/bulk-optimization.jsgetsrunning: falsefor an item with statusprocessing. It marks that row "Cancelled" and stops polling. It shows "All images are processed" even though compression is still running, and it never shows those results. On page reload,$bulk_runningis alsofalse.
Fix:
- Claim each slot with one atomic operation. Options:
INSERT IGNOREinto the options table, then check$wpdb->rows_affected. Store an expiry in the value.- MySQL
GET_LOCK()withIS_USED_LOCK(). This lock is also released when the PHP process dies.
- When no slot can be claimed, end the request without processing. Do not fall back to
self::WORKERS. - Guard
unlock_process()so it only deletes the slot this process owns.
Sketch of an atomic claim
public function lock_process( $reset_start_time = true ) {
if ( $reset_start_time ) {
$this->start_time = time();
}
-
- $free = array_diff( range( 1, self::WORKERS ), $this->taken_slots() );
- $this->slot = $free ? reset( $free ) : self::WORKERS;
-
- set_site_transient( $this->slot_key( $this->slot ), microtime(), $this->queue_lock_time );
+ $this->slot = null;
+ foreach ( range( 1, self::WORKERS ) as $slot ) {
+ if ( $this->claim_slot( $slot ) ) { // atomic insert-if-absent or GET_LOCK
+ $this->slot = $slot;
+ return;
+ }
+ }
}
protected function unlock_process() {
- delete_site_transient( $this->slot_key( $this->slot ) );
+ if ( null !== $this->slot ) {
+ $this->release_slot( $this->slot );
+ $this->slot = null;
+ }
return $this;
}handle() (or a maybe_handle() override) must also return early when $this->slot is null after lock_process().

Will replace the existing per image ajax compression with async requests.
It uses deliciousbrains/wp-background-processing.
We use extend and use these libraries to create a queue of images to optimize. With a few key differences:
The default class stores items added on the queue into a site option.
This will not work for sites with over 1000s of images as they will all be stored into a single row. Also it prevents us from compressing multiple images at once as the row would be locked when an item is being processed. Therefor we update meta key
_tinywp_queue_statusfor every attachment needing optimization toqueued.The default class has a single worker
The default
lock_process()sets a transient tolock. We override this behaviour by using a slot of each compression. When a task is done it will clear a slot so that a new worker can start. The previous version posted 5 images at once (seevar parallelCompressions = 5;)What this bring us?
This gives users a more reliable image optimisation process. Previously, it worked over the client through ajax calls. The image optimisation process has a lot of http transfers which might be interrupted by anything the client has going on.
Also, a user with a lot of images in their library can compress, grab a coffee and come back with all their images compressed.
