PAD execution is slow on some cases

Hi,

I am using an AVD to run my PAD flows. I notice on some cases where some of the flow runs are just slower than the others. I notice it was slower in running chrome and even closing it. Also notice the slowdown when queue is happening since i have 2 cloud flows running at the same time. Anyone else have this similar experience?

 

I had 3 unattended licenses but it seems it can only run one instance at a time and queue that other one when more cloud flows are running.

    Desktop flows cannot run concurrently. You can only have one desktop flow running on a machine at once. Unless it's a Windows Server machine that supports multiple sessions and then you run those flows as different users.

    As for flows slowing down, have you checked your machine performance? Does CPU/RAM usage go up to over 90% when this happens?
