| Bolt returning json data for many nodes can cause the local system to use an excessive amount of memory. This does not cause the bolt run to fail but causes the run to stall and take much longer to complete the more nodes being executed on. We have requested that they verify this theory by monitoring memory usage during a bolt task run but have not received a response to that request. As seen with this ticket a local run of the Powershell script completes in 30 seconds. Running with bolt on 40 servers it takes 20 to 30 minutes and can result in inconsistent errors. Adding more agents only makes the issue whorse. Lowing concurrency from 100 to 25 did not have any effect on performance as reported by the client. ----- original message ----- Hello Jose, We haven't heard from you in a while and wanted to check in to see if you needed any additional help.
