Power BI Desktop is So Slow Developing Making Model Changes
I am working on a Power BI model using Power BI Desktop and it is very very slow... Renaming a column, adding a folder structure, changing a format..... Every change made brings up a message saying...
I will second what the others are writing. It takes forever to update. I filter my data to a bare minimum when designing but it still takes for ever AT... EVERY.... STEP...
My minimum file is a very small (23 rows and 18 columns) online Sharepoint excel file imported via Sharepoint Folder. It is absolutely killing me (lots of stressball-squeezing). I am on dec 2019 version of Power BI Desktop.
I got better performance by turning off all the auto detect features in settings. You will need "Auto date/time" on if you do not have a designated Date Table/Dimension.
