Description

Getting much slower than expected query timings.

Querying something simple like just '/graphql?query=generalSettings{{description}} runs avg. 700ms+. Page queries Like the one below ) w/ complex flexible layouts, nested groups are avg. 2.9s+ ( and longer ) on local and wpengine.

This issue seems similar, but not exact to this performance issue

Secondarily, I have WPGraphQL SmartCache setup too. Max-age is set for a long time, but, also only seems to stay in the network cache for a very short time which makes relying on cache more challenging.

Steps to reproduce

1. Import field groups: acf-export-2024-09-13-slow-queries.json
2. Ensure the 'acf-local' load and save as prescribed by ACF docs are setup for more efficiencies
3. Create a simple test page with a header and a few section options
4. Create a graphql document name 'queryPageUri' of this query
   acf-export-2024-09-13-slow-queries.txt
5. Query the document using the /graphql?queryId=queryPageUri&variables={"slug":"/"}

PHP or JSON export of the ACF Field Group(s)

No response
