Behavior of Map/Reduce script when it yields?

edited Dec 2, 2019 4:35PM in SuiteCloud / Customization 1 comment

The documentation seems to provide no details beyond that yielding is handled for you. However, I have noticed odd behavior. For example, I counter I have as a global variable that gets incremented in my map stage will get reset whenever the script yields.

So when the script yields, do I loose everything in memory? Or am I running a poor test or misunderstanding something?
If I'm right, what's the best way to deal with this? The best I can think of is to check how much governance is left and try to save everything to the cache or a custom record and resume it when the script starts again. That sounds like a terrible thing to have to do however.
