Performance Dax Query Help

Hi guys,

 

I'm trying to improve my dax queries, but it still takes about 7000ms to load a table.
I have these 4 measures, will it be possible to improve performance using other functions? If so can you help me?

Slowness is only in the Final measure (Val Li Final LY).

 

Val Li: 240ms

Val Li LY: 180ms

Val Li Has LY: 500ms

Val Li Final LY: 7000ms

 

Val Li =
CALCULATE( SUM( table[Vlr] ) + SUM( table[Vlr_R] ) )

Val Li LY =
VAR SelectedDate = MIN('Calendario Carteira'[Date]) // 4
VAR SelectedYear = SELECTEDVALUE('Calendario Carteira'[Ano]) // 2021
VAR SelectedMin = CALCULATE( MINX(VALUES('table2'[StartInicio]),'table2'[StartInicio]), ALL( Calendario ) )
VAR SelectedMax = CALCULATE( MAXX(VALUES('table2'[EndFim]),'table2'[EndFim]), ALL( Calendario ) )
RETURN
IF.EAGER(SelectedDate >= SelectedMin && SelectedDate <= SelectedMax,
CALCULATE( [Val Li],
FILTER(
ALL('Calendario'[Date]),
YEAR(Calendario[Date]) = SelectedYear-1 ) ), BLANK() )
  
Val Li Has LY =
CALCULATE( [Val Li LY],
FILTER(RLSF,
RLSF[Level 9] = [RLS]
|| RLSF[Level 8] = [RLS]
|| RLSF[Level 7] = [RLS]
|| RLSF[Level 6] = [RLS]
|| RLSF[Level 5] = [RLS]
|| RLSF[Level 4] = [RLS]
|| RLSF[Level 3] = [RLS]
|| RLSF[Level 2] = [RLS]
|| RLSF[Level 1] = [RLS]
)
,TREATAS( VALUES( Calendario[Date] ), table[Data] )
,TREATAS( VALUES( table2[key] ), table[key] )
,CROSSFILTER( table[key2], table2[key2], None )
)
 
FINAL MEASURE
 
Val Li Final LY =
CALCULATE( SUMX( VALUES(table2[key]), CALCULATE( [Val Li Has LY] ) ) )

Hi  @fcarvalho ,

 

You need to improve Val Li LY first:

VAR SelectedMin = CALCULATE( MINX(VALUES('table2'[StartInicio]),'table2'[StartInicio]), ALL( Calendario ) )
VAR SelectedMax = CALCULATE( MAXX(VALUES('table2'[EndFim]),'table2'[EndFim]), ALL( Calendario ) )
 
You can simply use below dax expression:
 

VAR SelectedMin = MINX(VALUES('table2'[StartInicio]),'table2'[StartInicio]))
VAR SelectedMax = MAXX(VALUES('table2'[EndFim]),'table2'[EndFim]))

 

For measure Val Li Has LY,you could first create 2 columns as below:

 

Column = 'Table'[Level 1]&'Table'[Level 2]&'Table'[Level 3]&'Table'[Level 4]&'Table'[Level 5]&'Table'[Level 6]&'Table'[Level 7]&'Table'[Level 8]&'Table'[Level 9]

search_Rls = IF(SEARCH("RLS",'Table'[Column],1,0)>0,1,BLANK())

 

And you will see:

Then modify your measure as below:

Val Li Has LY =
CALCULATE( [Val Li LY],
FILTER(RLSF,
RLSF[search_Rls]=1),
,TREATAS( VALUES( Calendario[Date] ), table[Data] )
,TREATAS( VALUES( table2[key] ), table[key] )
,CROSSFILTER( table[key2], table2[key2], None )
)

 

Best Regards,
Kelly

Hi @v-kelly-msft ,

 

I had come to the conclusion that with Values () or Summarize () it would be better to use Addcolumns (), so I added Addcolumns to my sumx, values and put a Filter in the last measure. Now I have 400ms , it improved the performance!
I will follow your advice too, thank you very much
