Hello, Trying to understand why when I run

prefect.deployments.run_deployment

from a flow, it shows the new flows that are being triggered by this function as subflows in the UI? Shouldn't they be

regular

flows instead of

subflows

? That's what I understood from the docs.

just in general, flows calls from within flows are considered subflows and

run_deployment

is effectively calling a flow (just it could be on a different infrastructure / defined in a different storage location and is associated with an existing deployment)

Hi @Nate, thanks for you answer. The issue we are having is that our flow has hundreds of async tasks that are being executed with

asyncio.gather

on EKS. In order to not overload the infra, we were limiting the number of tasks running concurrently by using Task Run Concurrency tags, but at some point the tasks being executed just stop and they get deadlock. We thought it could be a lack-of-resource issue situation, but even after we increased the memory/cpu, they got deadlock without being constrained by available resources. From the docs we've found this piece of info below, so that's why we were asking about subflows.
