Measuring performance in DAX Studio

Hi all,

We can use DAX Studio to measure how long a measure takes to execute. The time measured will not be exactly the same each time due to factors exogenous to the measure but we can execute the measure several times and get the average of the execution time(s).

Instead of executing the query manually a number of times, check the timings and extract the average manually, can we have DAX Studio do that automatically? I believe I'd read somewhere it was possible but cannot find how/where.

Many thanks

    For those interested, this can actually be done in DAX Studio with the Run Benchmark feature in the Advanced  tab:

  • Don't need DAX Studio for that - run your queries in your tool of preference - Visual Studio Code, SSMS, Powershell etc. and use their timing features.

    Hi AlB ,

     

    To my knowledge, your requirement could not reach in DAX Studio. Please take a look at this for help.
