Disabling group membership update at login time for web applications
When a user logs in to Business Automation Workflow web applications such as Process Portal, group membership is recalculated and can be cached for that user on the database, in order to keep accurate permission checks based on group memberships. This process might significantly affect performance because it can take up to several seconds, depending on how many user groups are registered in the system. You can use the synchronize-user-registry-groups-on-login configuration property to disable this mechanism. In this case, it is recommended to call the group synchronization REST APIat a convenient time to perform the group synchronization manually.
If you do not want to disable the group membership update at login time entirely, you can fine tune its performance by using additional properties described in Optimizing the login time for web applications.
