    Hi Folks

    It seems since upgrading to MODX (2.6.4),
    Vapor no longer does what it's supposed to.
    My I/O Usage and Physical Memory Usage simply go through the roof,
    eventually ending up in a timeout.
    After fiddling around for too long I ended up contacted my host
    who helpfully supplied the following feedback...

    "The I/O and RAM usage spikes around the same time as the following files were created or modified:
    2018-06-11 12:27:35.0570217140 ./mySite.com/vapor/model/vapor/vaporvehicle.class.php
    2018-06-11 12:27:35.0570217140 ./mySite.com/vapor/scripts/resolve.extension_packages.php
    2018-06-11 12:27:35.0580217140 ./mySite.com/vapor/scripts/resolve.media_source.php
    2018-06-11 12:27:35.0580217140 ./mySite.com/vapor/scripts/resolve.vapor_model.php
    2018-06-11 12:27:35.0590217140 ./mySite.com/vapor/.gitignore
    2018-06-11 12:27:35.0590217140 ./mySite.com/vapor/scripts/validate.truncate_tables.php
    2018-06-11 12:27:35.0600217140 ./mySite.com/vapor/changelog.md
    2018-06-11 12:27:35.0600217140 ./mySite.com/vapor/readme.md
    2018-06-11 12:27:35.0600217140 ./mySite.com/vapor/vapor.php
    

    If this script was updated at 12:27 I'd recommend rolling back the update -
    If this script was first installed at 12:27 I'd recommend getting in touch with
    its developers to see why it is using so much RAM and I/O"



    Any clue would be appreciatively accepted

    Many thanks
