    Hi kharanadh,

    Any advanced operation in query table or complex nested looping calculate formulas in your data model? They may cause duplicate spends on system resources and cause the freeze of proceedings due to large amount of calculation.

    For this first scenario, you can try to add buffer function on these steps to reduce the duplicate memory resource spending.

    How and When to use List & Table Buffer? 

    For the second scenario, you can take a look at how to optimizing these formulas to reduce the cost of memory resources. (notice: calculate amount will be multiplied with looping amount, e.g. iterate two tables with 10k rows will calculate 10k*10k=100 m) Optimizing nested iterators in DAX
