Hello folks,
Being an ActaWorks/Data Integrator customer for about 9 years, we upgraded this week to version 11.7.4.3.
An upgrade should normally result in better performance but in our case, our jobs runs much longer (runtimes are even doubled) causing conflicts with other jobs.
A review of the job loggings suggests that DI is switching to IN MEMORY mode what does not seem to be the most performant setting. Who can advice how we should tune our jobs ?
I'm pasting a part of the job logging:
