Nested ifs vs. pick match

Hello,

 

I am having performance issues with heavy nested ifs. My question is, how to optimize the logic? Is a pick match solution, a guarantee for a better performance?

 

Whats your thoughts on this?

 

Thx,

My contribution here is, I've converted 120 nested..if conditions to Pick..Match condition which is really increasing the performance. like

  • Filter selection improving immediate
  • We can use them even Calc. Dimension using Pick..Match function where as If..else condition kills performance
  • Safer zone, Create in script as filed which will run proper even If.else or Pick.Match
