Planning time is 300ms, but the actual execution time is 300 seconds. Why is there such a difference?

Answer from AI
The difference between the planning time (300 ms) and the actual execution time (300 seconds) can be caused by several reasons:
- Planning — this is the time the system spends preparing the task for execution (e.g., compilation, resource allocation, thread scheduling).
- Actual execution — this is the real time the task takes to run.
Possible reasons for a large difference:
- Locks and waits: the task may be waiting in a queue, waiting for resources or locks.
- Unforeseen delays: for example, accessing slow external services, networks, disks.
- Logic errors: infinite loops or inefficient algorithms.
- Resource shortages: CPU, memory, I/O, which slow down execution.
To diagnose, it is recommended to analyze logs, profile the application, and check the infrastructure.
