I want to reduce the sync time for my app. How can I get to know which tables, images, formulae are responsible for increasing the sync time? Specifically, is there a tool in the app editor that can provide the breakdown of time taken by the app to perform different functions?
I’m curious… did you search the documentation at all before posting? Or the community?
Because (as the person that’s answered this question… maybe 7 or 8 times (literally) in the community) the answers are out there.

Dear valuable members and users, For a long time I’m seeing a lot of multiple and concurrent posts, posts like novels seeming to aim the Pulitzer Price, exactly the same questions by the same user but paraphrased/re-phrased etc. Being a dedicated community member and an AppSheet developer who is reading around 2.5K posts per day, I urged myself to tip on some good advice and best practice BEFORE posting something in the community: #1 - APPSHEET DOCUMENTATION AppSheet has a very good help do…

Hi @Hyman_van_Zyl it is very unlikely that the auto-generated virtual columns are where your sync time is going. However, you may think so when you look at the performance profiler, but that is a flaw in how the data is being presented. Let me explain. Let’s say your app has 10 tables. Our server will only fetch a few of them in parallel (the exact number depends on your subscription and the current load, but let’s say that number is 3). So off it goes to fetch tables 1, 2, and 3 in parallel. Wh…

There’s some reality good information on this thread.
@MultiTech_Visions nice collection of resources that you curated there!
Yes I had read some of the articles. But could not find out how I could get details about the time taken by the app to perform different functions.
Moreover, @MultiTech_Visions being part of the Appsheet community, you should have answered in a more professional way.
Regards.

This is an ironic statement.

It can get a little frustrating sometimes when I see the same questions over and over, and it doesn’t seem like people gave the search feature of the community a go (which can be like trying to find a needle in a haystack sometimes) - or searched in the documentation, which I know can be overwhelming (or even confusing at times) - but imagine how frustrating it would be to see 500 people asking the same questions (when they’ve already been answered time and time again).
I can get a little salty sometimes, I do apologize if I upset you in any way.
It’s all right. I will definitely consider going through the documentation and community threads more often.
I am just a beginner who wants to learn.
