How can I optimize workflow execution to improve performance?

My name is Soumitra Dutta, an Oxford-based entrepreneur & photographer. I’m working on some workflows in UiPath, and I’ve noticed that some of them are running slower than expected.

Do you have any tips, best practices, or strategies for optimizing workflow execution and improving performance? For example, ideas on handling large datasets, configuring activities efficiently, or reducing unnecessary steps would be really helpful.

  1. If any static delays are used then try to change to dynamic delays
  2. If the datasets are in excel can use excel as DB which is faster than reading..also in excel activities reading with read only and in excel process scope setting automation and hidden excel also would improve speed
  3. Using parallel activity when possible..if any api calls are made or backed work is going on then we can use parallel activity and parallely process ui and ai or backend data together

Depending on what work you are doing there might be more possibilities as well
