I use the following code to start a start a job : Class MyClass Extends (...) { ClassMethod Foo()   { job $CLASSMETHOD("MyClass","MyMethod") //take forever depending hardware } ClassMethod MyMethod()   {   //do database related stuff } } On local environment, calling Foo() is instantaneous (a few ms). On production/test servers (which have much better hardware than local) calling this function is slow and take between 200 ms to 800 ms. Obviously starting a new job with "job" command take lot of time on those environments. I don't know the reason of this. Is this a well know issue ?
