Lengthy error reporting & validation on load is freezing and crashing the application

[warrencowan]

Hi Everyone, I have just reinstalled alteryx on my machine (v 2021.3.5.03604),

and I have noticed that on opening a number of workflows (particulalrly the large complex ones with chains of batch macros nested within batch macros etc) that it is freezing the application, in what appears like a long validation process of each of the embedded macros and sub macros within, before bringing back a series of errors, all of which are benign and dont interfere with processing, and many of which are in tools within deactivated containers. 

It never used to do this and wondering if there's a way to stop it/solve it, as it can hold up the app for around 5 minutes on opening, and if I attempt to do anything else it crashes the app.

Hi @warrencowan ,

Can you share the stacked macro and a dummy ? Happy to test it on my machine to help you out :-).

Greetings,

Seb

Sadly not Im afraid.

The app looks simple enough on the top, but its running a batchmacro, in order to send in paramaters to kick off a chain of 12 sub batch macros.

Each of those have their own lengthy flows, sub macros, custom tools and connector in and out of about 4 different secure data locations.

I fear we'd be here all week just getting you set up.
