My app doesn't have authentication but still i see the following query being executed on every view when debugging with Clockwork
SELECT * FROM `users` WHERE `id` = '1' LIMIT 1
Any idea where that query is coming from.I suppose it may be a laravel middleware
which Laravel version are you using?
here are maybe reasons
if you share some code that would be great
every view or every request ?
Any view composers?
Hi @snapey
Its on every request and is very similar to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/64421370/laravel-app-keep-executing-the-same-query-with-every-request
In my case i will have only one user which will be the admin.Its wasteful to waste 10ms on every request
it's loading the current user and is part of starting sessions in the web middleware
You say you have a user ... then you need it, otherwise they would be a guest
