Workflow Parallel Steps

[Alon Raskin]

Hi Richard,
=20
I probably will do that but I wanted to know if anyone knew 'off the =
top' of their heads. The scenario is a little more complex then you =
describe but its not worth going into....

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?
