Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Increase the batch server's memory allocation
Why it's wrong here
Memory may help general performance but does not address contention from journal posting.
- ✓
Increase the number of batch tasks per batch job
Why this is correct
More tasks allow parallel processing of journal lines, reducing contention.
- ✗
Disable all workflows during month-end
Why it's wrong here
