Cron, wp-admin and the front end need to agree where temporary data lives
A site can have a persistent object cache and still repeat the same remote calls if some request types quietly keep transients only in memory.
Background cache refresh needs a budget too
Serving an older page briefly can keep a site responsive. Rebuilding everything at once can undo the benefit.
Move large cache clears into a background queue
Clear large caches in bounded batches, keep the admin request short and show whether the job has finished.
Check that scheduled WordPress jobs actually finish
Moving WordPress cron to a server timer can make the trigger more dependable. I still check the queue, the job’s progress and the result people see.
