Subprocesses from call activity are getting slower

[bzeuner]

Hi,

I have a process that starts many subprocesses (nearly 800) with a call activity. To avoid a StackOverflowException I set:
activiti:async="true" and isSequential="false"

My problem is that the processing of the sub processes are getting slower. At the beginning my first subprocess instances needed 3 seconds. At the end of the 800 they need 8 minutes per subprocess.

Does anybody know what the problem could be?

And what are the differences between the two attributes async and isSequential? What does it mean for database transactions?

Hi,

asynch - creates asynchronous job. Job can be in sequential manner too.
isSequential - (e.g. <multiInstanceLoopCharacteristics isSequential="false|true">) The isSequential attribute indicates if the instances of that activity are executed sequentially or parallel. It does not mean that activities are executed asynchronously.

re: Performance issue.
The best way to solve this issue could be to profile your app. and find out what is getting slower and slower.
