Hi @anirudhmgaonkar, Welcome to Katalon Community.

I am using Katalon studio to run a test that registers an account in my system, creates a profile and then fills out a 400 question survey. If i were to do this manually it would probably take around 15 minutes, and my running the katalon script and do it in about 7. Is there a way to speed up this process? I do not need to see the browser pop up and watch it manually scroll through the buttons, so i would be fine if it was just testing it in the back end and not showing me, or is the … ---

1.) Too slow compared to what? What are you using as a baseline to make this determination? 2.) What are your scripts doing? According to the numbers you’ve provided, they are averaging somewhere around 30 seconds per test, which sounds reasonable. I have some tests that run for several minutes. 3.) What are your machine specs? 4.) Are you running these in parallel in any fashion? In other words, we need more information. Without knowing more, the only generic advice I can give is to disable Smart Wait. ---

Allocating larger memory to Katalon Studio sometimes improve the speed of the test runs especially when your test suite contains many test cases and emits large reports. See > [@Export report to PDF](http://forum.katalon.com/t/export-report-to-pdf/18833/4): > > How about trying to allocate more memory to Katalon Studio provided that you have enough physical memory. See I checked my katalon.ini now. I found I have -Xmx2028m Approximately 2GB. This is the default size set by the distributed zip of Katalon Studio. My Mac has 4GB physical memory. Therefore I should specify -Xmx less than 4000m. Faly, how much of physical memory do you have? Provided that your PC has 4GB, you may try extending -Xmx such as: -Xmx3500m I suppose that Katalon Stud… ---

Log Viewer could slow down your tests. See [http://forum.katalon.com/t/log-viewer-slows-down-your-tests-how-to-prevent-it/60252](http://forum.katalon.com/t/log-viewer-slows-down-your-tests-how-to-prevent-it/60252) ---

Do you use ```auto WebUI.delay(x) ``` at all? If you do, you should avoid it.
