Alteryx Workflow using Python tool taking too much time to run completely.

Question

I am using the python tool in my Alteryx workflow for some data transformation, I am using approx 50000 rows of data as input but it takes too much time in running completely almost more than 10 hours. Why is it taking that much time? I have a doubt also that if it takes that much time does it stuck because of some kind of error?

It really depends on what the python code is doing. On my experience, i never had anything taking more than seconds/minutes to be run, but if you are importing datasets with millions of rows/hundreds of columns and making some computing expensive operations with them, it would take more time.

Does the python tool normally take more time in running the workflow when used in workflow?
