Documentation
Definition
The worklist is distributed in such a way that each parallel job requires approximately the same time and finishes at the same time. This way, the server resources are optimized.
Use
The document is divided up by the workload that was determined previously. Ideally, the time required for processing the document is proportional to this measure. However, in reality this varies. The smaller you make the maximum workload for each job, the more dynamically the application can react to a longer processing time for a document.
If you make the size too small, however, the additional workload for starting the jobs increases as does the amount of reading of additional data required, which is otherwise buffered and can be used again without having to be read again.
The maximum workload for each job depends on the type of document and on the report that is to be parallel processed. Therefore, we cannot give any general recommendations. The optimum value must be determined empirically during the implementation phase of the project.
