How to Drop unused fields from the Data Model

Hi,

Can anyone tell me how to drop unused fields from data model? There are many unused fields existing and it takes lot of time to drop manually. The dashboard gets really slow while use. I was trying to improve performance. Please suggest.

Thanks,

Mohith

You mentioned it takes a lot of time to "drop manually", I'll assume you mean using DROP FIELD statements.  Tip: Don't use a separate DROP statement men for each field, Instead, combine the field into one DROP statement.

DROP FIELDS F1,

F2,

F3
