Novell RBPM Best Engine Settings

Ok so I've been trying some of the settings for the workflow engine and found that these seem to work the best for us:



What I have however found is with about 5000 workflow requests the system does seem to choke a bit. I would recommend giving some good spec server to the server where you are going to run the workflow engine and assign another server as the 'front-end' server. This way the user experience should not be affected.

Getting JSON and JQuery .getJSON to work in IE8

To no surprise my code that was working 100% in FF died a horrible death in IE8.

Here's what I had to do to get it to work.

1) Set Header to:
response.setContentType("text/javascript; charset=UTF-8");

2) Prevent I8 from caching my Ajax requests:
$.ajaxSetup({ cache: false });
$.getJSON("/MyQueryUrl",
   function(data) {
     // do stuff with callback data
     $.ajaxSetup({ cache: true });
   });

3) Add JSON support to IE8
Basically just include json2.js in my script.

Don't we all just 'love' IE
