Task triggers are very slow to fire

[quriouss]

We have a task chain; do A then B, then C, then D then ... well, you get the idea.

The chain is about 15 steps long, and each step is set to fire after the previous step has completed successfully.

Unfortunately there can be a very long gap between one task completing successfully and the next one starting, often as much as 20 minutes.  Any ideas why this might be, and what we can do to remedy it?

Many thanks,

Q.

I have a couple of task triggers that have long gaps.  For me, however, it is a task with two conditions.  The second task can take a while so there looks to be a gap but the reality is the system is waiting for the second condition to be met.  Try mapping out all of your dependencies.
