Hi @hylosko ,
Below are the usual methods for making your report high-performant:
1. Optimising DAX with appropriate DAX functions

2. Removing unwanted columns

3. Removing unused columns

 

If these doesn't speed up your report, you can contact your admin to push the workspace into Corporate capacity where the report will load much much faster. 

 

Your report in desktop takes the data from Cache, hence it loads faster in desktop sometimes when compared to services.

hmm actually Im admin of this workspace, so can you show me how to set that capacity ?

Hi @hylosko ,
This admin is different from the "Admin" role of a workspace. 

The corporate capacity can be enabled only by the Power BI Administrator of the organization. 
You can connect with them and they should be able to perform the needful.
