[jboss-dev-forums] [Design of JBoss jBPM] - Creatiing new pooled actors for every task instance

Hi, I have noticed that for every new task instance that contains an assignment to a pooled-actor within a process, there are new entries added to the jbpm_pooledactor table. This behavior is a wee bit undesirable, as we end up creating a rapidly growing large table with very redundant records. The table contains a 'VERSION_' field which would seem to indicate that at least some thought might have been put into doing this differently. Is there any plans to work on assignment in upcoming releases ? Or is this just how it is going to work for a while ? Example of my assignment: | <task name="Manual Address Review"> | <assignment pooled-actors="WD User"/> | </task> | (The same behavior exists with swimlanes) The source of my concern is trying to improve performance when getting a task list for when there are a large number of outstanding tasks. The number of joins required to do this is expensive, and could possible be reduced if there was a consistent ID for pooled actors in the JBPM_POOLEDACTOR table. (Couldn't these assignments, actors be determined and setup at the time of process deployment, rather then as part of creating a task instance ?)
