Hi, I'm currently evaluating the possibility of moving to ODE from ActiveBPEL, currently it seems that for a single thread, ActiveBPEL performs better end-to-end for a like-for-like BPEL flow, (ActiveBpel ~300ms, Ode ~700ms) but seems to scale considerably better for multiple threads, has anyone else seen this behaviour, or has anecdotal information on the comparative performance ?
Also, one thing that concerns me, is looking at my load-tests it seems that ODE is generating unique namespace prefixes for *every* element in each response document in the workflow (and presumably the documents created+consumed during the running of the BPEL processes). In my particular case the set of namespaces used by the BPEL workflow is static and known at deployment time, so I'm perplexed why every single element gets its own unique-prefix un-necccessarily, could anyone please explain this to me, an example response is as follows: <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";> <soapenv:Body> <axis2ns4756:ExecuteWorkflowResponse xmlns:axis2ns4756=" http://mynsworkflow"; xmlns="http://mynsworkflow"; xmlns:saw=" http://mynsworkflow";> <ExecuteWorkflowResult version="48" xmlns:ns2="http://mynswsdl";> <axis2ns4757:type xmlns:axis2ns4757="http://mynsmsg"; xmlns=" http://mynsmsg";>1</axis2ns4757:type> <axis2ns4758:status xmlns:axis2ns4758="http://mynsmsg"; xmlns=" http://mynsmsg";>1</axis2ns4758:status> <axis2ns4759:channel xmlns:axis2ns4759="http://mynsmsg"; xmlns=" http://mynsmsg";>0</axis2ns4759:channel> <axis2ns4760:outcome xmlns:axis2ns4760="http://mynsmsg"; xmlns=" http://mynsmsg";>bece5689-a575-4531-86b6-15176d827c08</axis2ns4760:outcome> <axis2ns4761:state xmlns:axis2ns4761="http://mynsmsg"; xmlns=" http://mynsmsg";>53f123fc-9a27-4559-8fd2-86a6f9dc598e</axis2ns4761:state> <axis2ns4762:creationTime xmlns:axis2ns4762="http://mynsmsg"; xmlns="http://mynsmsg";>0001-01-03T00:00:00+00:00</axis2ns4762:creationTime> <axis2ns4763:changeTime xmlns:axis2ns4763="http://mynsmsg"; xmlns="http://mynsmsg";>0001-01-03T00:00:00+00:00</axis2ns4763:changeTime> <axis2ns4764:createdBy xmlns:axis2ns4764="http://mynsmsg"; xmlns="http://mynsmsg";>bece5689-a575-4531-86b6-15176d827c08</axis2ns4764:createdBy> </ExecuteWorkflowResult> </axis2ns4756:ExecuteWorkflowResponse> </soapenv:Body> </soapenv:Envelope> Now, I think I probably understand why there *is* a prefix on each element even though the default namespace is being specified, as I think (I can check) that my element form default is 'qualified', but I don't at all understand why the prefixes are all being generated with different names (ok, so I understand how, '.uniquePrefix' obviously, but why? ) Can anyone help me ? Also I'm interesting in writing an AJAX explorer for the ODE process instances, has anyone else been down this route already ? Many thanks :) -- - Ciaran
