We have a series of decision tables and for a particular set of decision table we see that for the first time when the rule is fired, there is a delay between the After Activation of Rule 1 and Before Activation of Rule 2. This happens only when the Rules are fired for the first time. Since there are 200 decision table rows each execution seems to take longer. The condition for the rules to fire is $if : facts() $fact : Fact(factType == "XYZ") from $if.Fact $if.Fact is an array list which has 200 Fact objects. Does this iteration takes time? We use Drools 5.6 Any help would be great. ----- - Prashanth -- View this message in context: http://drools.46999.n3.nabble.com/Delay-between-rule-firing-using-Drools-...
