Yii2 findOne() exceeding execution time - yii2

Question

I have a action that is doing a simple findOne($id) query and returning the one row from the database. This is exceeding maximum execution time. This method is being inherited by multiple classes where is works perfectly fine. I am not overriding any find() or afterFind() methods in the relevant Model.
public function actionGetone($id)
{
$classname = $this->model;
$model = new $classname;
return $model::findOne($id);
}
I don't get any errors and works as expected if I override the method with:
public function actionGetone($id){
$items = Job::find()->where(['id' => $id])->all();
return $items;
}
but as soon as I change it to return return $items[0]; id dies again with same Exceeded error.
Not sure if this is linked but I'm getting a Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded error when the action is not mentioned in the behaviours() method and when it is added to access rule like below. But it gives me a Call to a member function checkAccess() on null error when i change access role to ['*']. I don't have authManager setup.
public function behaviors()
{
return [
'contentNegotiator' => [
'class' => \yii\filters\ContentNegotiator::className(),
'formats' => [
'application/json' => yii\web\Response::FORMAT_JSON,
],
],
'authenticator' => [
'class' => \yii\filters\auth\HttpBearerAuth::className(),
'only' => [ 'delete','patch','getone'],
],
'access' => [
'class' => \yii\filters\AccessControl::className(),
'only' => ['delete','patch','getone'],
'rules' => [
[
'actions' => ['delete','patch','getone'],
'allow' => true,
'roles' => ['#'],
],
],
]
];
}
I'd appreciate any ideas :)
Update
$items = Job::find()->where(['id' => $id]);
return $items;
Gives:
{
"sql": null,
"on": null,
"joinWith": null,
"select": null,
"selectOption": null,
"distinct": null,
"from": null,
"groupBy": null,

Found the problem, its to do with the recursive flag in the model's toArray() method. In my case, a user has jobs and a job has users specified in the model's fields() methods. Which is resulting in an infinite loop.
Add this to the relation's model to avoid the infinite loop:
public function toArray(array $fields = [], array $expand = [], $recursive = true)
{
return parent::toArray($fields, $expand, false);
}
