Workflow Parallel Steps

[Richard Marut]

Alon,
 
How about if you turn on the technical trace and look at the execution time
of the results? Or, get basis involved to watch what's happening.
 
I'm assuming that each branch will contain a task that results in a work
item being sent to someone which ultimately put those steps into a wait
state and the odds of two different people processing them at the same time
would be minimal.

Hi Guys,
 
Just some questions about Workflow Parallel steps:
 
1. Does the Workflow engine guarantee that two parallel branches are
executed in parallel? What if there are not enough system resources to do
this? Does it wait for enough to become available?
 
2. If two branches are executed in parallel (via the use of a fork), does
each branch utilise a seperate batch/dialog process?
 
Regards,
