Log Viewer slows down your tests. How to prevent it?

Time lag

I will give you another surprise.

Test Suite TS1 actually finishes processing data far earlier before the Log Viewer flushes all logs.

I have done an experiment. In Katalon Studio v8.2.0, I opened both the Console widget and the Log Viewer widget. The Log Viewer is configured to show Tree view.

Console_LogViewer

I measured how long the TS1 takes to finish. The result was interesting:

Widget duration duration graph
In Console 4 min 5 sec #########################
In Log Viewer 6 min 10 sec #####################################

After 4 minutes 5 seconds, TS1 finished processing all data entries. At that time, the Job Progress monitor showed 736/1000. It was simply a wrong information.
