 We periodically experienced process flow slowing down and had to restart process flow. Anyone out there had same issue and have any fix for it?

Have you been running the 'move workunit to history' process?

 Thanks David and Fred. We do run "move work unit to history" process. It is slowing down now after we cycled Lawson beginning of January.

After going from 9.0.0.4 to 9.0.0.6 we experienced significant increases in workunit processing times. Working with GSC the ultimate solution was to disable the jit compiler. In the $GENDIR/bin/pfserv file look for the "sub bpm_common" section. Edit each "$java_vm_options =" section item to include this statment "-Djava.compiler=NONE".

Here is a snippet from my pfserv file:
if ($bpm_ext_dirs eq ""){
$java_vm_options = "-Djava.compiler=NONE -classpath $l_classpath -DtoEmail=put_your_email_address_here -DoutputToConsole_re
moveme=false -DuseSso=true -Dbpm.app.id=BPM -DMERC_DO_NOT_CHDIR=$ENV{MERC_DO_NOT_CHDIR}";
} else {
$java_vm_options = "-Djava.compiler=NONE -classpath $l_classpath -Djava.ext.dirs=$bpm_ext_dirs -DtoEmail=put_your_email_addr
ess_here -DoutputToConsole_removeme=false -DuseSso=true -Dbpm.app.id=BPM -DMERC_DO_NOT_CHDIR=$ENV{MERC_DO_NOT_CHDIR}";
}

We are running AIX5.3, env 9.0.0.6, app 9.0.0.4.
I would recommend talking with GSC before making this change and at the very least make a copy of your pfserv file.
