Queue Trigger starting with too many jobs

Hello @Darshan_Sable
I’m still confused. Let’s have an example with my data.

N = 6, “number of New queue items”,
x = 1, “minimum number of items that triggers the first job”,
y = 8, “max number of sim. jobs”,
z = 10, “Another job is triggered for each…new items”.

Then following with the documentation algorithm here:

  • This means that 1 job is started if x is reached. For the remaining N-x queue items, we will try to start (N-x)/z jobs. If this were to surpass y, we create just enough jobs to reach y in total.

Using my example data we have:

"For the remaining (6-1) queue items, we will try to start (6-1)/10 jobs. "
so:
“For the remaining 5 queue items, we will try to start (0.5) jobs.”

So if logical algorithms gives half job → doesn’t it mean that no extra job should be started?
