<div class="jive-rendered-content"><blockquote class="jive-quote">Looking at how the jbpm_job table is utilized, yes, I think these  specific indexes can be removed.  Just to clarify.  From what I have seen in <strong>our use-case</strong>, under normal circumstances the jbpm_job table has very few entries at any point in time. Seems like entries are added and removed constantly. That being the case, I'm not sure I can see a benefit of spending the extra time/resources maintaining indexes which are never utilized. </blockquote><p>I'm going to explore the possibility of removing the job indexes. Can you please <a class="jive-link-external-small" href="https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBPM">create a JIRA issue</a> for this?</p><blockquote class="jive-quote">By the way, this is as good a time to explain the use-case that is failing for us.   We have a workflow with three steps synchronous steps.  The first step takes a couple to a few hundred milliseconds to complete, the second step can take anywhere from 5 to 30 seconds to complete and then the last step usually takes a half a second.    When I mentioned jobs earlier, I was referring to workflows contained the three steps just mentioned.</blockquote><p>If possible, could you attach your workflow and test harness to the JIRA issue? Please remove any sensitive information you would not like to see published.</p></div>
