| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| ArgumentNullException | parameters contains a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic). |
| ArgumentException | One of the key values in the parameters collection contains a null reference (Nothing). --or-- One of the key values in the parameters collection does not match the default key for DefaultWorkflowSchedulerService. |
| FormatException | One of the parameters cannot be converted to a double-precision floating point number that matches MaxSimultaneousWorkflows. |
| ArgumentOutOfRangeException | MaxSimultaneousWorkflows is less than 1. |
This constructor is invoked when the workflow runtime engine loads services from an application configuration file. The only valid parameter is maxSimultaneousWorkflows, which can specify the number of workflows that can be run at the same time.
Setting maxSimultaneousWorkflows to a high value might cause the .NET thread pool to starve. This could cause time-outs when a persistence service tries to complete a persistence transaction because Transaction objects also use the .NET thread pool.
If not specified in a constructor or configuration file, the default value for maxSimultaneousWorkflows is 5 for a single-processor machine, and (int)(5 * Environment.ProcessorCount * .8) for a multiple-processor machine. Note that (int)(5 * Environment.ProcessorCount * .8) is not always the same as (int)(4 * Environment.ProcessorCount), because of the rules of integer arithmetic.
