2 Datasets Refreshing at the same time
Hi cassidy ,
If these two datasets configured under the same gateway, it is a normal phenomenon.
When different datasets are refreshed in parallel under the same gateway, the gateway resources will be occupied at the same time. The refreshing time for a small dataset is naturally longer than the time for a single refresh of this dataset.
Currently, there is no option to select the refresh priority for the data set. We recommend that you avoid the same time period when configuring the scheduled refresh for each dataset to reduce resource occupation, and if your dataset has data sources from the cloud, you can refresh it directly through the cloud without configuring a gateway for it. In addition, you can also refer this document to adding a gateway cluster.

Thanks for the response v-yingjl . Neither Dataset uses a gateway, both pull from predominantly from Dataflows or an Azure Database. Does that change anything about your recommendations?
Hi cassidy ,
It is a better suggestion to avoid refreshing different datasets in the same time period in power bi service currently regardless of whether you use a gateway or not.
In addition, here is an idea about refresh priority in power bi service, you can vote for it to help us improve power bi and making this feature coming sooner.
