Apex future methods (methods that are annotated with @future) currently have the higher asynchronous limits for heap size, CPU timeout, and number of SOQL queries. This pilot enables you to specify even higher values for these and for additional limits in future methods. If you were exceeding a governor limit in your future method, or if you think a future method requires a higher limit, you can increase this limit for your future method.
@future(limits='2x|3xlimitName')
@future(limits='2xHeap') public static void myFutureMethod() { // Your code here }
The following limit modifiers are supported. The string value passed to the limits parameter inside the annotation is case-insensitive.
Modifier | Description |
---|---|
@future(limits='2xHeap') | Heap size limit is doubled (24 MB). |
@future(limits='3xHeap') | Heap size limit is tripled (36 MB). |
@future(limits='2xCPU') | CPU timeout is doubled (120,000 milliseconds). |
@future(limits='3xCPU') | CPU timeout is tripled (180,000 milliseconds). |
@future(limits='2xSOQL') | Number of SOQL queries limit is doubled (400). |
@future(limits='3xSOQL') | Number of SOQL queries limit is tripled (600). |
@future(limits='2xDML') | Number of DML statements limit is doubled (300). |
@future(limits='3xDML') | Number of DML statements limit is tripled (450). |
@future(limits='2xDMLRows')1 | Number of records that were processed as a result of DML operations is doubled (20,000). |
@future(limits='3xDMLRows')1 | Number of records that were processed as a result of DML operations is tripled (30,000). |
