https://sonarly.com/issue/3795?type=bug Creating a custom object via POST /metadata takes ~5.8 seconds (200 OK) because the workspace migration runner unnecessarily invalidates and recomputes 6 role/permissions caches, causing ~3.9s of redundant DB queries against core.role, core.roleTarget, and core.application tables. Fix: The root cause was a single `if` block in `getLegacyCacheInvalidationPromises` that used an `||` condition to gate **all 6 caches** (including 5 expensive role/permissions caches) whenever **any** metadata change occurred — even when no role/roleTarget data changed. When creating a custom object, `shouldIncrementMetadataGraphqlSchemaVersion = true` (because `flatObjectMetadataMaps`/`flatFieldMetadataMaps` changed), which triggered `invalidateAndRecompute` for all 6 caches including the 5 role caches (`rolesPermissions`, `userWorkspaceRoleMap`, `flatRoleTargetMaps`, `apiKeyRoleMap`, `flatRoleTargetByAgentIdMaps`). Those role caches fire expensive DB queries against `core.role`, `core.roleTarget`, and `core.application` (~3.9s of redundant work) even though no role data was touched. The fix splits the single combined block into two separate conditional blocks: 1. `shouldIncrementMetadataGraphqlSchemaVersion` → only invalidates/recomputes `ORMEntityMetadatas` 2. `shouldInvalidateRoleMapCache` → only invalidates/recomputes the 5 role/permissions caches ```typescript file=packages/twenty-server/src/engine/workspace-manager/workspace-migration/workspace-migration-runner/services/workspace-migration-runner.service.ts lines=88-106 if (shouldIncrementMetadataGraphqlSchemaVersion) { asyncOperations.push( this.workspaceCacheService.invalidateAndRecompute(workspaceId, [ 'ORMEntityMetadatas', ]), ); } if (shouldInvalidateRoleMapCache) { asyncOperations.push( this.workspaceCacheService.invalidateAndRecompute(workspaceId, [ 'rolesPermissions', 'userWorkspaceRoleMap', 'flatRoleTargetMaps', 'apiKeyRoleMap', 'flatRoleTargetByAgentIdMaps', ]), ); } ``` Now custom object creation (`shouldIncrementMetadataGraphqlSchemaVersion = true`, `shouldInvalidateRoleMapCache = false`) only recomputes `ORMEntityMetadatas`, skipping the ~3.9s of unnecessary role cache DB queries. Role cache recomputation only happens when role/roleTarget data actually changes.

Why Twenty
We built Twenty for three reasons:
CRMs are too expensive, and users are trapped. Companies use locked-in customer data to hike prices. It shouldn't be that way.
A fresh start is required to build a better experience. We can learn from past mistakes and craft a cohesive experience inspired by new UX patterns from tools like Notion, Airtable or Linear.
We believe in Open-source and community. Hundreds of developers are already building Twenty together. Once we have plugin capabilities, a whole ecosystem will grow around it.
