Way to decrease total execution time of a job?

[simper66]

Hi,

Is there any tip to decrease the total execution time of a Job?

For a job that does "nothing" it use to last 10s.

Around 3s before my code starts and 7s after my code ends.

I have been playing in the controller with things like CRON_SYNC_PERIOD = 1s, imagePullPolicy= IfNotPresent, etc, but seems to not help.

Any advise?
