Hi
I came across the statement "Only a maximum of 255 instances of a message flow can run within an execution group". I take it as per message flow. Meaning if I have two message flows running then I can have maximum of 255 for each of the flows and hence in total up to 510 instances running. Can someone please confirm.
Thanks in Advance |

I don't think these limits are enforced any more, particularly with the movement to 64-bit architectures.
The other thing to keep in mind is that it's only the number of input nodes - across the entire integration server/execution group - that maintain continuous threads. Threads for additional instances are created when needed, cached for a bit for reuse, and then shut down after a period of inactivity.
But you really should be doing a lot of performance testing to ensure you have the right number of instances for your workload. 100 instances of a single flow is probably a very large overkill. _________________ chmod -R ugo-wx / |

Hitting the maximum suggests your design is wrong. Try not to wait inside a flow, as it means you will end up losing incoming requests (assuming that you use a synchronous protocol) when they are all busy.
Use queueing technology to avoid all these sort of issues. _________________ Well, I don't think there is any question about it. It can only be attributable to human error. This sort of thing has cropped up before, and it has always been due to human error. |
