Random delays with no clear pattern

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 638

Greetings,

 

Over the past week, been noticing many flows simply getting clogged with no clear indicator.

The first obvio consideration is that maybe I put in some bad logic, or maybe over used a variable, or maybe an apply to each has too many iterations in parallel- etc.

 

but here I have a nice clean cut case of "wtf"

why is a simple step of a 30 second delay up to 53 minutes in duration?

 

anyone have any insight in to what/how/where one can look at any advaced views of why this is happening?

    I can't answer why this is happening, but I would try deleting the delay and adding it back.

    @ScottShearer ,

     

    thing is that this random "delay" is occurring in multiple places all over.

    So, this time it appeared in a very clean step, while other times it can hit anywhere else.

    After this one was hung for 53+ minutes, I canceled and ran again ,

    the new run finished normal with no delay anywhere and without me modifying anything
