Can we create multiple application with single MSI(or Same MSI) in biztalk admin console ?

My client requirement is process 100 files  from biztalk with in 5 min ,actually it is taking 20 min .

So I decided to created same instance of the application with multiple time in BTS admin console ,as I understand biztalk admin console never allow to install same schemas with multiple  time .

Any help can be  appreciate ..

No, you can't. You can try assigning different host to different artefacts. In that way there won't be load on a single Host.

Also, the answer depends on what is taking the most processing time. Eg: If your orchestration is taking a lot of processing time. Then you may try optimising it. Say, reducing persistent points etc. You may try to use maps in the ports wherever possible. So, first figure that out.

BizTalk will automatically process multiple messages on separate threads so you may need to tune your system. The following link should get you started: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/7801.biztalk-server-performance-tuning-optimization.aspx

Another possibility is to set the Batch Size property on your receive location if the adapter uses batch size to determine how messages are picked up.  As an example, it you want  the MSMQ adapter to immediately pick up messages and start to process them, set the batch size to 1.

You may also need to distribute the processing across multiple BizTalk servers by installing BizTalk on additional servers and joining the existing BizTalk group.

Sorry, can you clarify the request a bit?

There is no link/dependency/affect between a .msi (a deployment package) and application performance.

If you have a performance problem, it's entirely within the app or the configuration of BizTalk itself.

As pointed out, BizTalk will by default process work in parallel (multi-threaded).

How big are the files?  How many messages are contained in each file?  Are you using a Sequential Convoy?

You should rather work on betterment of your process rather than multiple deployments.

Can you explain what your process is doing, Then experts can definitely suggest some design changes,

As starter, you may try to split your process ( if it is complex) in smaller process. Thanks
