Question:
I'm getting an error that says 'too many new instances created: 503". Does anyone know what I can do to resolve this?
I I'm doing a lot of lookups in this logic element so I think this has something to do with it.
Answer:
503 is the number of instances created
the . The number comes from app's the application xml config file:
| Code Block |
|---|
<formulaEngine> |
...
<script> |
...
<maxInstances>500</maxInstances> |
...
<timeoutInSec>5</timeoutInSec> |
...
<findMaxResults>200</findMaxResults> |
...
</script> |
...
</formulaEngine> |
The maxInstances is set to 500 in by default. Q:
Do you think it would fix the problem to call some of the lookups in a different element?
Is Is 500 the max number of instances for one element or the entire logic?
A:It seems that it is per formula (just guessing from the fact that those variables lives live in instences instances of the class named FormulaSandbox).
Q: Is Is there any a way to increase or remove this limit?
A: We've allowed ourselves quite a bit of leeway in dedicated instances, but in a shared instance we do have to limit the resource usage in a formula.
The The limit is per script, i.e formula element, so spreading out logic would help.
The The first thing to do would be to review the code though.
As a workaround = , try to spread out the logic between more elements.
