My app is slow (and crashes every couple of seconds), probably because it’s connected to a whole bunch of data and legacy formulas in Airtable. Is there a tool or framework that can help me remove some bottlenecks in my app’s performance without having to go through and rewrite everything from Airtable in Glide?

You can use this to see which columns take the most time to load.

Thanks, I’ll give this a try!

I have a looooot of columns in Airtable. When I identify a slow column, are there any best practices re how to approach fixing?

Do I just delete it in Airtable (if I can), or somehow stop it from syncing to Glide, or are there other strategies?

If those are computed columns and you don’t need it in Airtable anymore, I would recommend deleting them from Airtable and use a Glide computed column.
