I am having an issue with a several of our dashboards refreshing each time a new filter is selected. Here is a rundown of what we are experiencing:
File Details:
File Size: 43,429 KB
The Data is loaded from another QVW
This file contains a combination of SQL connectionds and to several Dimensional QVD’s. It brings in 4 Snapshotes, today, Last Week, YOY Today, YOY Last Week.
Here is the layout of the dashboard:
ISSUE:
When navigating page to page in the Web verison, performance is fine (esp. after caching). It’s when a filter is applied that it lags. It takes up to 2 mins for a filter to apply if you let it refresh on it’s own.
Here is a Screenshot of the “lag”:
Our workaround currently is to select the filters, and then refresh the browser page, which applies the filter, but this is less than optimal for the user experience.
The desktop file does NOT experience any of these issues, only the web versions.
Please let me know if anyone has experienced similar issues, and any ideas folks may have to solve the issues. Of course feel free to ask further questions if you would like elaboration.
Hi JSwedberg,
Nice design!
Could you check if you have allot of unique value's in some of your data model fields. Document Properties > Tables # Distinct.
If you use allot of Set Analysis calculations you could consider too precalculate some of your expressions in your data model and aggregate it to an higher level.
Can you upload a screenshot from your table viewer?
Hi Jelco,
Thanks for your response!
I definitely use a TON of Set Analysis, that was my first thought as well, and one I am discussing with our BI Data team.
I'm just wondering what you may be thinking of when you are asking about #Distinct? Are you thinking perhaps the data set is too weighty and needs more Distinct values? Just wondering.
I'll try to get a screen of the table view up.

There are a few things you can look into:
Since you mentioned you are experiencing this only on server might be to do with Server resources. Are there a lot of other apps which large data sets.
Thanks

Thanks Ajay
My hunch is that this is server related as well, as the qvw's themselves move like lightening when being used within the Qlikview Application, and only seem to experience these issues via use of the webserver/ajax/ie plugins.
Our datasets are all pretty large, so that could have affect. Unfortunately I am not the server admin, so I can't get readily at that info. This is all helpful though as it adds things I can review with the team!
Your welcome.
It would help allot to reduce the number of distinct value's in your model if they ain't necessary to use.
For example recordid's or receiptnr's.
Set Analysis is a great tool when using flag's. But when used to often at 1 sheet it impacts the performance allot.
I would suggest to:
- move the calculations to the backend
- Aggregate data (from day to week for example)
- reduce the number of distinct value's
This would do the trick
Which Qlikview version are you using ? This could be a build issue .
