ScriptRunner Script Registry doesn't complete

[Josh Simnitt]

Running ScriptRunner (version 5.4.1) on JIRA version 7.6.4.  

I attempt to run the built in script "Script Registry" but it seems to hang and never complete.  The server acts as though it gets locked up, I see a 'waiting for available socket" error if I open another page.  I am trying to check scripts / postfunctions from an older version of JIRA. 

At some point it completes or the process ends.  I'm able to see one portion of the results, but can't scroll down.  The process continues to run, and sometimes Chrome will want to kill the process because it thinks the page is frozen.  Eventually the page (using Chrome) turns blank.  Eventually I can see and interact with the JIRA instance again. 

Is there a way to prevent this from hanging / freezing?  Or is there another way to quickly check that these scripts are using the correct classes for JIRA 7?

Found the answer here right after posting this...

It appears that I need to set the post function to be processed AFTER the issue is created and re-indexed, etc.

Hope this helps.
