Story Points:2
(test done with Nuxeo 2021.27.13, tomcat, Mac OS, embedded H2 and es - but we don't test data here anyways)
Say you have these simple JS automation:
// Test_AllIncluded function run(input, params) { var tot = 0; for( var i = 0; i < 10000; i++) { tot += i; } }
Similar, but calling a sub chain (not exactly the same, we don't sum the values, but it's OK for the test):
// With subchain function run(input, params) { var tot = 0; for( var i = 0; i < 10000; i++) { javascript.theSubChain(input, {}); } }
The other chain:
// With javascript.theSubChain function run(input, params) { var tot = 1; }
The first one, when ran takes some dozens milliseconds (21). The second one takes seconds, literally dozens of seconds (45,000). This is a non DEV env, running the tomcat package on my Mac, but at this level of difference (like about thousands times slower), I believe the CPU, load and all is not an issue.
So, basically, a JS automation calling a JS automation takes way way too much time.
