I believe so as well as Im having the same problem for the last few days. My file sizes are around 25MB and power BI doesnt like it. I imported the statistical areas map of Australia and though it imports fine, you cant do much with it as it freezes and crashes. Hope they fix it.

I initially tried Esri Map option. It generalised so much that you couldn't even recognise the area. 

 

Wonder if anyone has used both maps successfully on the REAL spatial data, not just simple point data.

 

I contacted Esri support, and was told that this product is not supported by Esri and advised to contact MS. I don't know who to contact in Microsoft to discuss both maps. Anyone has idea?

 

I recommand there should a special discussion community of using maps.
