openvidu: OVP 2.22.0 Delay in Starting Recording : Intermittent Issue [14-15 Sec to Start Recording]

Describe the bug We have a Java based service application which makes use of OVP 2.22.0 start recording API (/recordings/start) to start the recording. Once we hit this start recording API we expect to get quick response back from OVP where recording would start eventually. However, most of the times, we get quick response within milliseconds and sometimes we get response back in 2-3 seconds which works for our business case.

But intermittently, sometimes, it takes 14-15 seconds to give response back and after 15 seconds the recording would start at OVP end. We need to understand why this much of delay in starting the recording? We don’t have exact steps to reproduce the behavior since its intermittent issue.

Expected behavior Recording should start within milliseconds or max 2~3 seconds.

Wrong current behavior Taking about 15 seconds to start recording intermittently for few sessions.

OpenVidu tutorial where to replicate the error Since this is an intermittent issue, there are no particular steps involved to reproduce the issue. We have seen this issue with 2 way audio-video session where 2 participants [both publisher] are in a session.
