Your Site Could Not Complete a Loopback Request: How to Read the Error and Fix It on Shared Hosting
TL;DRA failed loopback request means WordPress could not reach its own wp-cron.php with a ten-second POST.

Open cPanel, go to Logs and then Resource Usage, and read the Faults column for the minutes the site was slow. Faults on the disk rows and none on the entry process row means you are throttled, not out of workers.
