[Bug] Large increase in amount of executed queries

Bug report

What I did

In my recent Sentry reports, I found several N+1 query issue reports on various different admin panel pages. Looking into them, I noticed that on basically all pages visited, for each table available in my database, there are two queries being fired (regardless of page content):

select column_name as `name`, data_type as `type_name`, column_type as `type`,
                      collation_name as `collation`, is_nullable as `nullable`,
                                        column_default as `default`, column_comment as `comment`,
                                        generation_expression as `expression`, extra as `extra`
from information_schema.columns
where table_schema = 'FOO'
  and table_name = 'BAR'
order by ordinal_position asc

select index_name as `name`, group_concat(column_name order by seq_in_index) as `columns`,
       index_type as `type`, not non_unique as `unique`
from information_schema.statistics
where table_schema = 'FOO'
  and table_name = 'BAR'
group by index_name, index_type, non_unique

What I expected to happen

No obsolete queries being fired.

What happened

A lot of queries fetching data that seems largely obsolete.

What I've already tried to fix it

My observations and thoughts:

• this only started appearing recently; I suspect the Laravel 11 upgrade for my application is involved
• given the origin of the calls and the large refactorings in https://github.com/Laravel-Backpack/CRUD/pull/5457, I suspect the issue might originate there
• the bug is not present when I checkout an old tag running on Laravel 10.48.3 + Backpack CRUD 6.7.0

Given that I'm not immediately sure about the moving parts involved, I've decided to stick with reporting this for now. If more info/help is needed, let me know, then I'll happily assist in tracking down the source of this issue.

Is it a bug in the latest version of Backpack?

Hey @jnoordsij thanks for the heads up. 🙏

I am already working on the fix for that here: https://github.com/Laravel-Backpack/CRUD/pull/5504

I will bump that PR priority.

Cheers
