Process Flow Transitions are very slow

Question

I have a process flow with few activities. All these acttivities are executing some PL/SQL procedures.
But I have noticed, when I ran the procedd flow it takes more than 5 minutes for eaqch transition. For a example I have two activities called Start_Proc and Calculate_Proc. When Start_Proc finished, next step is Calculate_Proc. NO coinditional transitions inbetween those two.
But Wen Start_Proc finished it shows Start_Proc1on process monitor and it takes more than 5 minutes to goto Calculate_Procactivity.
I have removed all codes inside these procedures and put null for testing purpose. So basically now all procedures do nothing and takes lessthan 2 millisecond to execute. Still when I run process flow with 4 steps it takes more than 30 minutes to finish.
I tried optimizing repositiry option as well. But no luck at all.
I am using OWB 10.2.x version
Thanks in advance,

did you use for deleting data from audit tables truncate_audit_execution_tables script or use supplied with OWB purge_audit_template.sql script?Hi Oleg,
Actually I used API for that instead of using script as below
BEGIN
wb_rt_api_purge.purge_deployment(TO_DATE('2000/01/01','YYYY/MM/DD'),TO_DATE('2010/08/30','YYYY/MM/DD'));
wb_rt_api_purge.purge_execution(TO_DATE('2000/01/01','YYYY/MM/DD'),TO_DATE('2010/09/01','YYYY/MM/DD'));
COMMIT;
END;
Thanks
