Data reload performance issue when using ConvertToLocalTime() function in Qlik Sense and QlikView

[Andreas_Giesbrecht]

You might have encountered a performance degrade for data reloads when using the function ConvertToLocalTime() only with one parameter "timestamp" since upgrade to QS Feb 2021 or/and QV 12.60 as reloads could take 3 times longer than with the previous version before the upgrade.

Environment

• Qlik Sense February 2021, May 2021
• QlikView 12.60, 12.60 SR1

Workaround:

Using the second parameter "place" in ConvertToLocalTime() improves the reload performance.
