Performance Tuning Guide > Tuning Siebel Workflow for Performance > Tuning Workflow Processes > Minimizing Usage of Parameter Search SpecificationAlthough the server component parameter Search Specification (alias SearchSpec) is a feature of Siebel Workflow, it is recommended that you minimize your use of this parameter with workflow processes that are frequently invoked. Minimizing SearchSpec use, especially for frequently invoked processes, improves Workflow engine performance during runtime because the engine does not have to construct the SearchSpec string. It is important, however, that you do not completely avoid using SearchSpec. Not using this parameter can indicate actions taking place on the current row in some cases, and on all rows in other cases. For specific guidelines, note the following:
Indexing Fields in SearchSpecIf you determine that SearchSpec does need to be used, make sure that all the fields being used are properly indexed. Proper indexing of the fields helps Siebel Workflow and the underlying database to efficiently build queries. |
