Workflow Performance Considerations
A couple of questions on workflows and performance:
1- RISK: If there is an error on a beforesubmit workflow, will the record fail and not make it in the database? If not, is there any possibility that this can occur?
2- SPEED: In an aftersubmit, is the workflow loading and submitting the record? In script the load and submit operations take a few seconds. If you have multiple aftersubmit workflows on the same record, does this mean multiple load and submits and potential performance issues due to processing time?
3- WORKFLOW PROCESSING: If I have an aftersubmit workflow with multiple setvalue actions, does the load and submit of the record occur just once per workflow or once per action?
