Hi all,

 

Can you help me with the issue below?

What can I do to have the visuals loaded?

The pbix file is 3,070KB, and I have removed columns/ hidden keys, but it's still very slow still.

Hi @ROG ,

 

From your error message, it should be an overload triggered by too many visuals, resulting in too many queries.
In this case, you need to check which visual is taking up too many resources and reduce the number of queries applied to it as much as possible.

You can refer to this doc :

Monitor report performance in Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

Thanks @Anonymous  this was exactly what I did.

I was using two enourmous tables, and o lot os images and visuals to provide an interactive report to the business. What I did was, using a dataset which had agregated tables. It took me sometime to recreate the report, but it's now way faster.

This is likely the case of a very inefficient measure, perhaps one that is filtering a FACT table. Example:

SUMX(
   FILTER(
       Sales,
       Sales[Region] = "01"
   ),
   Sales[Amount]
)

 

That will perform horribly and can easily cause memory to be exceeded depending on the size of the Sales table.

CALCULATE(
    SUM(Sales[Amount]),
    Sales[Region] = "01"
)

Would perform about 100x faster with less than 1% of the memory consumption, and that isn't even the best way to do this.

 

But I am guessing here. You need to provide more info.
