Cool) I wonder how exactly do you transpose results to display as inline list? ---

This looks like GIPHY? I did something almost the same a while ago, an advice is to not show the highest quality GIF on the screen. It can take a long while to load. ---

I meant further steps. I noticed that JQquery in Transform JSON column works super slowly and itā€™s almost impossible to transpose anything with it. On the other hand JS column makes things much faster though the code itself seems to be a little more complex. ---

> [@11183](#): > > I noticed that JQquery in Transform JSON column works super slowly I havenā€™t noticed it being that much slower. The app I mentioned above used the same technique and it worked just fine in production. I even had one app where I have 100 rows transposed and I didnā€™t notice any problems. ---

Thatā€™s a pretty convincing demo. What happens if your API response contains a much larger collection? Is there any change? My guess is there would be no change? ---

I didnā€™t try actually (too lazy)))) But I think there will be no difference. May be the JQ method will work even more slowly) ---

Okay, I tried to transpose 37 results from that Chuck Norris API. JS method works well. JQ method shows only 15 lol) And this is a hell to work with the JQ table, it is sooooo slow ---

Thanks for sharing, that is indeed weird. Hereā€™s my case. ---

Hmm šŸ¤” Iā€™ll research this case deeper. Would you mind to share your app as a template? I promise not to distribute it or build something else based on it. Just for the research. ---

Actually, my guess is that it might be down to network latency. When you use JS everything happens on the device. But when you use JQ youā€™re calling an external service. So the long delay might just be because thereā€™s high latency between your location and wherever JQ is hosted. ---

Oh, that makes sense. I thought that JQ executes on device too. Iā€™m not an expert in programming like at all)) ---

Hola @11183 May you share your demo APP in order to see your settings and make some changes using what I do in these cases? I use another method and use the Fetch JSON plugin only and works perfectly so far. I think I can improve what you are using. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/c/2/c2996a8147641f32713399d2b8fe24141b2b1a67.png) Saludos! ---

Actually thatā€™s a fake app with some fake data. I donā€™t even fetch anything real, just copy-paste a collection manually. But anyway here it is: [https://hissing-word-6623.glideapp.io/](https://hissing-word-6623.glideapp.io/) What Iā€™ve noticed from your screenshot is that you use single JQ column to get all the values divided with ā€œ,ā€ So I assume then you split it into a Glide native array and use Single Value to get different values one by one? ---

Clever) But anyway whatever I do JQ works terribly slowly and thanks god (or DavidšŸ˜) we have JS column) ---
