Performance improvements for stale thread warnings
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
Stale thread warnings were causing performance issues during dataflow run execution. Stale thread/slow component warnings are added as part of the dataflow execution when a processing thread takes more than 5 minutes to process a single dataflow record. The stacktrace of the dataflow thread is added as part of the warning for debugging purposes, but in some scenarios the stacktrace can become very large. This has been resolved by removing the stacktraces from the warning, improving the query logic, and adding the run ID to the exception method to assist if there is an error.

Addressed performance issues for classless DSMClipboardPage
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
The DSMClipboardPage implementation handles Page Group access as a classless page (i.e. pxObjClass = ""), creating potential performance issues in implementations where the page group is used with a very large number of distinct AccountIDs in a short period. This has been resolved by updating the system to not cache keys for page group classless page.

Resolved error for custom relative dates
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
An error was seen when parsing the [Date Property] [is before/after] [Last/Next x days] while using a custom amount of number of days in Customer Decision Hub (CDH). This was due to the system not supporting the [Last/Next x days] feature for SSA, but only detecting this during parsing for the prefixed values for Proposition Filters and not custom values. As the parser did not realize the construct referring to the relative date was not supported, it created an SSA that caused an exception during execution. This has been resolved.
