What does the term performance refer to in the context of Microsoft Power BI reports?

The term performance in the context of Microsoft Power BI reports primarily refers to the speed and responsiveness of the reports. This encompasses how quickly reports can load and how efficiently users can interact with them, including the speed at which data queries are executed and visuals are rendered. High performance ensures that users can retrieve insights swiftly, leading to a better overall user experience.

Roductively, while the complexity of calculations, the number of visuals, and the size of the data can influence performance, they are not inherent definitions of what performance means. Complexity in calculations can lead to slower performance if not optimized, but it alone does not define performance. The number of visuals can add to the graphical load but is not a direct measure of performance. The size of the data may impact how quickly a report can be processed, but performance is fundamentally about the user’s experience with that processing speed and interactivity.
