Multiple duplicate queries while report refresh

Hi!
I've found that refreshing my ODBC source with pretty simple SQL-query generates multiple duplicate queries to my DB (up to 5 same queries for 1 refresh).

I tried [ConnectionTimeout = #duration(0,3,0,0), CommandTimeout = #duration(0,30,0,0)]) within Advanced Editor with no result.
It makes my DB suffer =(

Hi @Anonymous

 

Do you use Referenced tables? It would affect the performance. Here is the post about improving Query Reference performance for large tables.

Hi!
Such query multiplication appears even with just 1 table in sources, no reference tables, no duplicate tables.
