Hello,
I have a CSV file loaded into Desktop (1.5 M rows, 721 MB in size) I have a calculated column;
List.Sum(List.FirstN(#"Added Index"[Spend Fragmentation],[Index]) which I used to calculate the cumulative values of the Spend Fragmentation column, the problem is this column is taking a long time to calculate.
Does anybody have any ideas on how to speed this up? Any and all solutions welcome.
Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @AlexP1981,
Based on my test, I suggest you use a dax formula to calculate the cumulative values.
Column = CALCULATE(SUM(Sheet13[Spend Fragmentation]),FILTER('Sheet13','Sheet13'[Index]<=EARLIER(Sheet13[Index])))
Result:
Hope it could hep you.

Daniel He
