  Hi Vinayak,

  It's hard to say anything about performance issuses due to plugins. It's a huge difference if a plugin checks for a value and inserts something in another field and a plugin that does multiple retrieves and compares the results from these retrieves and updates multiple entities from those results. 

  Yes, it could impact performance but it depends, and if the plugins make the workload lighter it might be worth it.

  To my understanding it's perfomance wise better to use late binding in the plugins.

  Regards

  Hi Vinayak,

        If there are too many sync plug-ins it will impact the CRM save / update times. Also a lot of plug-ins is not the right approach for performance reasons. But that depends on how many entities and how many plug-ins you are talking about. It surely has performance hit as each additional item takes some time to process. If all of these are rquired for business purposes, may be you want to look at optimizing CRM server. Look at following articles:

  Hi Vinayak,

  Multiple plugins synchronously might slow crm performance issues. So it depends on how much time your plugin executes.
