Parallel shape latency

[Shiri]

Hi,

At my organization we've just finished upgrade from BizTalk 2004 to BizTalk
2006 R2.

We recognized that there is a 1-2 seconds latency at complicated
orchestration contains parallel shapes. After open the orchestration
debugger both at BT 2004 and BT 2006 we've recognized a different behaviour:
at 2004 executes through all the branches first shape and then back to the
first branch at parallel and executes the second ahape, the second branch
and etc. at 2006 executes the first branch - first and second shape, then
goes to the second branch and executes the first and second and etc.

It seems that 2004 works more like multithreaded then 2006.

Does anyone knows if there is a registry key, or configuration that has to
be done at 2006 env. ?

TIA,
Shiri

Parrallel shape executes on single thread and there is no way to
configure/change this. This is same for 2009 version. Execution order is
generally L-R but not guaranteed so design should not make assumption about
order or execution. JB.
