Because multiple calls to get the value of a SIL Script Custom Field for a certain issue are inevitable, we implemented an option to generate the value only once per HTTP request. This can improve performance, but might have some side effects.
For exampleinstance, if the value is generated before some other values it depends on are modified, the result might not reflect latest updates.

Using PCF - SIL Script custom field

...

interval age = currentDate() - created;
return "This issue is " + age + " old";

Number of subtasks

number noSubtasks = size(subtasks(key)); 
return "This issue has " + noSubtasks + " subtasks";

...

string[] assignees;
assignees = addElementIfNotExist(assignees, userFullName(assignee)); 
string[] assigneeHistory = fieldHistory(key, "assignee"); 
for(number i = 1; i < size(assigneeHistory); i = i + 2) {
 string assigneeName = userFullName(getElement(assigneeHistory, i));
 assignees = addElementIfNotExist(assignees, assigneeName); 
}
return assignees;
