Performance issue deadline monitoring

[Bertrand, Scott]

Hi Koenraad,
 
One way to handle it - OSS note 98407 mentions this ("Restrict the number of application servers...).  Have a look in the OSS under workflow performance.
 
Hope this helps,

Subject: Performance issue deadline monitoring
 
 
Hello All
 
We have an urgent performance issue.  We use deadline monitoring with
SWWDHEX.  The problem is that the order registrations have increased
enormously the last months.  (that's what you get after a merger)  As a
result also our active workflows have increased.  We use deadline
monitoring for various steps in these workflows.  Our problem now is that
everytime SWWDHEX runs a lot off tasks start running at the same time and
take over all available dialog steps on the server with a dramatical
result on performance.
 
The question is if there is any way in limiting the amount of dialog steps
this event can take in simultaneously.  Any other ideas to tackle this
problem are offcourse more then welcome!
 
Kind regards
