What are design considerations to think about when using the “Pause For” action?
Context: I have a single workflow that can have 10-15 instances running at a given time. This workflow has a pause of 60 minutes within a loop to check a list every hour. There is concern that this may be too frequent of a check against the list and that a longer delay should be used.
I am a Site Collection Admin - not a Farm admin - so I have no idea what server resources are used at any given moment to support the workflows running at the same time.
Do Nintex workflows get preserved on the server in RAM or on Disk?
How would I know as an SCA the impact I have on server operations with a workflow that I create?
What do I need to know about the “Pause For” action so I use it efficiently and with the least amount of resource use?
