Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

Hi,

I am trying to enhance the peformance of my app.

Loading data in a gallery takes a long time so I tested loading the data in a collection in stead of the gallery.

I use powerapps monitor and find that the code Filter(Mytable,Mycriteria) used in the items property of the gallery takes 43 seconds

However if I do ClearCollect(MyCollect,Filter(Mytable,Mycriteria)) it takes 2 seconds.

The difference would then be explained by code for the gallery item controls I presume?

Since monitor does not specify on that level is ther someway to find out except for scrutinizing alle code for every control?

Or is many controls with lots of specific for codes/colors/fills etc based on available item properties enought to cause this kind of performance drop?

There are numerous reasons why, as you learn the platform better they make sense.

However, without seeing your Code, without seeing your App, when and where the Gallery loads versus your ClearCollect, its impossible to give you a 100% answer, just impossible.

BTW is this Dataverse or Sql or SharePoint?

Regardless of which one you do, you should be using Views, to limit the column counts.

ClearCollect is an instant thing. Many controls have intentionally buffering etc and delayed loading on purpose because they are async, where as the ClearCollect is not (at least not relative to your next lines of code).

Also, how many records show up in the Collection, versus how many get displayed?

Get the total count of records in the Gallery AllItemsCount, versus the ClearCollect
