HUGE performance hit using TestExecute 10.10
Hi I updated to TC/TE version 10.10 yesterday in order to retain compatibility with Chrome 34. I'm now seeing a HUGE performance hit compared to version 10.0. I run TestExecute on...

Hi all,
so here are my results supporting the idea of TestExecute being ridiculously slow.
Attached you'll find the summary of different runs of the same project (189 steps) in different scenarios:
TC_Run_1_All_Plugins:
> this is TestComplete running with all plugins (default installation).
> Took 11m 40.220s
TC_Run_2_Used_Plugins_Only:
> this is TestComplete running just with the needed plugins.
> Took 11m 15.737s
> As you can see in this case turning off the unnecessary plugins gave me a thrilling 30 seconds faster every 11 minutes. Not to bad.... not too good either
TE_Run_1_Win7_VM_1:
> this is TestExecute running on a VM (win7). It's got 2gb of RAM and 1 core (enough for running our application even 2 instances)
> Took 2h 20m 21.473s
> As you can see the plugins factor doesn't affect at all TE performance.... it's just unacceptable
TE_Run_2_Win8_VM:
> again TestExecute running on a VM (win8). Can't recall RAM and cores, but they are more than enough for our porpoises. This VM is running in an i7 build.... so there's no lack of gear in here at all.
> Took 3h 17m 18.843s
> Totally unacceptable and actually worst record so far
TE_Run_3_Win7_VM_2:
> TestExecute running on a VM (win7).
> Took 2h 17m 33.604s
Just to clarify the project we're running for testing just the login system of our application. I mean.... is probably the easiest and fastest test developed so far so imagine what happened if I run the whole roject. I just can wait that long.
Please do contact me if you have any questions, but basically I need a better solution than turning plugins off.
Waiting for comments,
Leandro
