Issue/Introduction

On environments with a huge amount of Users defined, like 120K Users, every time you connect to the Client 0 - Administration the User list is loaded and this operation takes almost 2 minutes.

When executing directly the request in the database for obtaining the 120K users, this can be done in sqlplus in only 1 second.

Environment

Automation Engine 21.x, 24.x

 

Cause

The reason why it takes so long to display the list in AWI is because the AE processes perform a select bulk query requesting only 50 elements to be fetched at a time, so this whole operation repeats 2400 times so in the end this takes 2 minutes.

Resolution

Update to a fix version listed below or a newer version if available.

Fix version:
Component(s): Automation Engine
Will be fixed in Automation.Engine 21.0.11 - Planned release end July 2024
Will be fixed in Automation.Engine 24.1.0 - Planned release end June 2024
