Description

sanctum version : 3.3.2

Hi, I use Laravel with Sanctum, and I've noticed that the app runs a query each time I use request()->user()

I found that if the saved token is incorrect or doesn't exist in the database, the user resolver runs a query each time it is called, and this is not good for performance.

Steps To Reproduce

you can run a fresh Laravel app with sanctum and set wrong token in Bearer token that not exist and use request()->user() for times.

I check app and query log with Clockwork browser extension.

@taylorotwell decided to get along with this behavior on #49205, we won't wix

You should check through Auth::hasUser() after your first call for Auth::user() (available since 5.6)

• [5.6] Add ability to determine if the current user is ALREADY authenticated without triggering side effects #24518
