Hi @Jitse_Schaafsma,

It depends on what you’re trying to achieve,

In your workflow, the loop processes 5 items (batch size = 5), then calls the sub-workflow (maybe your wait is inside it), and then processes the next 5 items..

You’ll probably want to look at this template as well, it explains asynchronous processing with a wait step very clearly:
