How big is the file? You will likely need to stream it in / stream the response out as otherwise the file + transcription will have to remain buffered in memory, in full, the whole time.

Isaac McFadyen•2/27/25, 12:56 AM

Unfortunately I don't believe you can stream using the AI binding, because internally it stringifies all inputs to JSON and that can't be streamed: https://github.com/cloudflare/workerd/blob/main/src/cloudflare/internal/ai-api.ts#L118

Is there a way to stop new instances of a workflow from spawning through the dashboard / cli? I did something naughty and have created an infinite loop of workflows - basically each workflow would create another workflow, and they would resolve too fast for me to cancel it through the dashboard

I have to run some migration process on ~2000 users. For each user I have to run a couple of requests and update some DB record.
The migration for each user is going to be a workflow.
My question is how should I loop through all users to execute the workflow?
Is it ok to run it from a worker? Can I start 2000 workflows from a single worker request, or is there some limit?
Or, should that loop be a workflow on its own? Read the list of users, then start a step for each user that is dynamically named after the userId?

still am looking for some help on this issue. we're seeing our worker fail when creating a workflow, and we're getting tons of logs for durable object is overloaded / failures that just say "run"

i think it may be a limitation on how fast you can trigger workflows, even if you are under the concurrent execution limit (4500) or if you are under the total queueable limit (100K)

Hi @Matt - I think that cf internal errors should not leak to the workers logs. I took me a while to try and figure out what they mean, until I realized that there's nothing I could or should do about it. Moreover, it affects the error rate that I see in the log, potentially masking real errors that I have to be aware of.

Just a follow-up here, can this be documented somewhere, especially if there are plans to increase this throughput, and do you have recommendations on how to deal with this?

for example, should we have retries when creating the stub or when awaiting the create function?
