Bar chart loads too slowly

[javierlaborde]

I have an Airtable base with a table with ~50k records, linked to a ‘Students’ table, so around 10k students and each linked to 5 records in my ‘Chart’ table, all this in order to organize my data so Softr can render a bar chart like this:

Original record from ‘Student’ table:

Auxiliar records from ‘Chart’ table:

Rendered chart from ‘Chart’ table data:

Problem is, it takes for ever to render the graph, literally around a minute. The Softr app is linked to my Airtable base thru a PAT token which should make things go a bit smoother. Any recommendations on how can I have this working with more decent waiting times?

Airtable charts with big tables is indeed slow given API limits… this will change in 2 months as we are applying new data caching layer

thanks @artur, looking forward to this!
