CALCULATE function result changes by using slicer

Hello all,   I hope you can help, I think it is just a matter of understanding the filter in CALCULATE. I am currently using a calculate function and I can´t explain the result myself. For example...

    I found the problem. The value was influenced by the date-slicer, that was referencing the date column of the fact table. Since I created a date dimension table and changed the reference of the slicer, it works with only a CALCULATE function!

Already tried this?

 

Process Time B =
CALCULATE(
AVERAGE(
TableX[Process Time]
),

All(TableX[Product]),
TableX[Product] = "B"

)

Do you really have performance issue using filter or it's just speculation?

 

As i know every filter put in the calculate functions it gets converted behind the scenes in a filter so

First of all, thank you for your time and help!

 

I tried this already. With that it shows the same values like the original code:

Process Time B = 
CALCULATE(
    AVERAGE(
        TableX[Process Time]
    ), 
    TableX[Product] = "B"
)
