Description
Description
When we're trying to change the slug of an entry, it sometimes stays the same after the save is complete (which takes quite a long time by the way). It doesn't happen all the time and mostly randomly, but in the case when it happens, even multiple changes & saves can't seem to change the slug.
Steps to reproduce
- Change the slug on a entry
- Save the entry
- Slug stays the same (even though it should have changed)
Additional info
- Craft version: 3.7.13
- PHP version: 7.4
- Database driver & version: MariaDB 10.3.29

Research direction
Start by reproducing the slug change with Craft 3.7.13, PHP 7.4, and MariaDB 10.3.29, following the listed save steps and checking whether the long save completes without changing the slug. Done means a changed slug persists reliably after saving, including across repeated attempts.
