Load Management

Description

Load Management allows more control over how many tasks can run simultaneously, eliminating potential issues that may drastically impede overall system performance. It also affects system interaction between two or more Automate Desktop tasks running at the same time on the same system. Each running task consumes approximately 7 MB of memory (depending on the action being executed). The more tasks that run at once, increases the amount of memory being consumed and the CPU power required to track and maintain the tasks.

To access Load Management settings, from the Task Administrator, navigate to Options > System Settings > Load Management.
