Steve,

I was able to mock up a flow myself and can provide a template to share
with you that acts as I would anticipate.  All of this is coming with the
heavy caveat that I am not a Python master by any means.

Before that, however, reading through the history, can you clarify if you
are providing any input to the processor?  Based on the context and noted
behavior of the tasks/time increasing, my suspicion is that you are not,
and the intent of the processor is not aligning with your expectations of
this processor acting as a means of ingest into the flow.  To that end, the
intent of the ExecuteStreamProcessor as designed is to "... execute[s] an
external command on the contents of a flow file, and create[s] a new flow
file with the results of the command."  Accordingly, if there is no input,
the processor just returns after being allotted an execution cycle.

I believe you may be after the ExecuteProcess processor which could be
adapted to carry out execution without the need for input.

Let us know if that is the case, if not, any additional clues will help us
get to the issue.

Thanks!
