Memory Error

I have 2 tables with 2M rows each and joined with a key column made in Power Query by concatenating multiple columns of the table and creating a 1-1 relationship.

 

When I created logic in a measure it was working well but when I updated it as the client's requirement got changed i got the below error.

I tried various ways to optimise the dax and the model but it was not enough, then I tied to see the bottleneck in the dax so I used DAX studio and tried to find the issue as shown below but was not able to understand much as in which line of code is hampering my performance.

I feel the EU mat others is the one which is causing the delay because the above code works fine without it

@NimaiAhluwalia it is very hard to answer what is going on? Maybe it will be easier if you put together a pbix file with sample data and share it here. DAX expression only cannot tell anything, you should also share a relationship diagram, although your dataset is very small and I don't see that is an issue.

 

It will be also good to know what you are trying to achieve, I see there are a lot more ifs, etc.
