For those reviewing, the simplest way to verify the fix is to create a
DebugFlow processor. Set the "CustomValidate Pause Time" property to "70
millis" and when you apply the update, you should see the component is
validating (it's possible that validation will complete before the 50 ms
timeout due to java timing precision - if this happens, just configure
processor and click "Apply" again). Change the duration to 25 millis and you
should no longer see the validation occurring. Of course, because of timing
issues you may see some variance.
> Wait a bit for components to finish validation on updates

>
> When a Processor, Reporting Task, or Controller Service is updated, it is now
> validated asynchronously. This provides a faster response time for the web
> request but can sometimes result in a component showing a "Validating..."
> state when the response is received, even though the validation logic would
> complete very quickly. When we make an update to a component, instead of
> immediately creating the DTO, which would reflect that the state is
> "validating..." we should wait up to some amount of time (say 50
> milliseconds?) for the validation to complete, before we create the response.
> This way, components whose validation completes quickly still show as Valid
> or Invalid as soon as the response comes back and only those components that
> actually take a long time to validate will show as Validating.
