Description

Hello, with a standard configuration of the provider, we juste found a use case where same activity was run twice without any trace in the history. Only trace we found was the double call in our appinsight.
I will try to reproduce it. (the server was not at all under heavy stress)

Research direction

Start by reproducing the duplicate activity execution with the standard provider configuration described in the report, comparing App Insights calls with the execution history. Done means the behavior is reproduced, its cause is identified, and a regression test demonstrates that an activity is not executed twice without a history record.
