Does using two extract file and transfer activities in one workflow slows down the workflow performace ?

[Rut7]

Is it ideal to have two extract file and transfer file activities in a workflow ?

• Does it hamper workflow performance?
• Does it take consume extra DB space than expected ?

Thanks

There should not be an issue having multiple of these tasks in a workflow.

I have seen workflows doing 5 or more such activities in a sequence.

Performance rather depends on the size of the data (e.g. 5 files with 100 records vs. 1 file with 100 million records)
