Re: Question about "indirect processing" mentioned in documentation for the SSEQ

["Wang, Andrew via Tech-talk" <tech-talk@aps.anl.gov>]

Hi Mark,

That helps clear up what WAIT does in SSEQ. I guess this has led me down a rabbit hole of trying to understand how asynchronous record processing described in Chapter 5 ties into the overall operation of SSEQ. I'll pose my follow-up questions in another email to Tech-Talk.

No, it will wait for rec_2 as well. The mechanism used waits for all records that are directly processed as a result of rec_1 processing.
