3 years agoHi azaterol
When tables are copied and pasted multiple times in the model, the model size will be enlarged. When you use a report in Power BI Desktop, the whole data model of the report is held in the memory of your computer. And too many complex formulas will consume more memory and CPU resources for calculation than efficient formulas. All these will make the report perform slower.
