Desktop Refresh vs Service Refresh with Premium Capacity

Hi all,

 

I have a Model that refres very fast in desktop (10 minutes with a 2 gb pbix) I uses a server with 32GB ram, but on the service the refresh takes more than 3 hours,  with P1 premium capacity (25Gb ram) is this normal?

 

PD; My Sources are only dataflow and Commondata service

 

thanks in advance

  • Hi there

    I would not think it should take that long.

    I would also look at the Premium Capacity App to see what else is taking and consuming the capacity in your premium node.

    Have you looked at setting up incremental refreshing?

    Can you please try to re-pro the issue by connecting the direct data sources(Ex:- SQL Server) instead of data flows from Power BI Desktop.

     

    Create a report and publish it to the Power BI Service and check for the refresh with the "Refresh Now and Schedule Refresh".

     

    Note:- If the schedule refresh is completed very less time compare to data flows report schedule refresh. You can raise a support ticket to investigate the issue and share the support ticket number here for reference.
