I have a workflow that updates two things in a database. There are two actions, each operating on a different thing of the same type. The things are simple, a title column and an order column. In both instances, I’m updating just the order column - e.g. from a number 2 to a number 3.
My understanding is that updating a thing should cost 0.5 WU.
Because there a Bugs in WUs that normally cause things to cost more than they should. Whenever I do a simple test for one purpose I find other bugs not expected to be found.
3 days ago was testing conditionals and associated costs. Had 3 create a new thing actions. Each was for different data types, each was empty in that I added no field values to any.
Two create a new thing charged what is consistent of 0.62 WUs while third consistently cost 2.12 WUs. Why in the world would one of three cost 3.5X the other two? No explanation except bugs that will ALWAYS and Continually pop up just like any other bug. Just wait for Summer Intern season, expect higher costs.
