PowerBI Onpremises Data Gateway does not utilizes full RAM capacity

Hello Everyone,

 

Have got 32GB of RAM on my Data gateway server and the Powerbi Gateway processes (serveral Mashup's & a Gateway process) combined are hardly using 4GB of RAM.

Hi @Aslan-R,

 

You can try to change MashupDefaultPoolContainerMaxCount setting. For more information, please see Control the number of mashup engine containers section in this blog: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/on-premises-data-gateway-january-update-is-now-available/

 

As you mentioned the dataset refresh take much time, you can refer to this article optimize performance: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/power-bi-reports-performance

 

Also you can check if there are many open connections to SAP Hana server at the time when you refresh the dataset. 

 

Best Regards,
