We developed a bot that runs fine in attended mode, with an average runtime of 7.5 seconds. However, when the same bot is deployed in unattended mode, it runs with an average runtime of 25 seconds. According to the logs, there are no execution issues or background processes taking up the memory. We have increased the memory of the virtual machine, restarted the machine, and tried all troubleshooting methods mentioned in various forums, but still no luck.
The issue occurs when the bot clicks and enters data using the “type into” activity. There is at least a 10-second delay when clicking the element, and then typing the data takes another 10 seconds, even though we haven’t included any hardcoded delays in the activities. This issue isn’t particular to one activity or sequence it is across all activities in the project.
Robot is installed in service mode-Upgraded to latest version
Advise what should be done to resolve this issue and make the bot run faster, as it is supposed to.
Hi Anil,
This issue is across all the activities and not specific to any group or specific activity. For instance, for a type into activity, there is delay (like few secs) before clicking the element, and delay before clearing the data in the area, and delay before typing data into it.
Also, can you advise how to check the recording as I’m not aware of it.
hi Anil,
Checked the recordings and there isn’t any peculiar issue that seems to be popping up. Slowness is reported across all activities and in all applications involved in automation.
we tried bumping the memory to 16 GB and added extra storage such that it could help, but no luck then too. Kindly share some insights that could probably resolve this slowness issue.
TIA!
