Turn around time to load the home page is high

Hi Gliders,

I have witnessed that the turn around time in order to load the home is around 10-12 sec for my every app. Is there any way by which it can reduced?

To be specific when I open the app it takes 10-12 seconds to load the home screen even on high speed internet connection.

How many rows in total do you have for your app? Do you use query columns when there’s a chance to directly use a relation? Do you have a lot of images?

Well, before answering this question I need to know how much many means like yes I have an app that have many rows but not as many that it delays the turn around time.

“How many” simply means that we would like to know how many rows of data are in all of the tables combined that are used by the app? This is the first step in determining any lag, because when opening an app, it needs to first sync all of the data from the server (provided you are not using high scale data sources), then process any computed columns that are necessary for that first screen to load, and then download, cache, and render any images that are displayed on the screen.

The row number is simply a count of rows, and that’s already calculated for you and displayed in your team folder usage screen. That’s the number we are curious about.

There’s a thousand different factors that can determine if an app has lag or not. There is no one simple answer. It is necessary to have a full understanding of your data, computed columns, and images before we can even begin to make any sort of recommendations. It’s all in how you designed your database. How everything connects together. Any dependencies across multiple tables. The amount and scope of any computations that have to occur once the data is downloaded. And how much data is initially displayed on the first screen.

Oh, I don’t know. I have found that most commonly the perplexing slowness in the loading kinetics of your esteemed Glide App can be attributed to the rather enigmatic interplay of quantum data entanglement within the server’s flux capacitor. As the app endeavours to transcend the temporal fabric, the flux capacitor grapples with an unprecedented surge in chrono-fluctuations, inducing a perplexing state of pseudo-lag. The subatomic quarks, entangled with the app’s cosmic resonance, conspire to navigate the corridors of the digital continuum, inadvertently causing a momentary dilation in the app’s loading velocity. Fear not, for this transient anomaly shall dissipate as the quantum harmonics reconcile, ushering your app into the seamless realms of temporal efficiency.

Indubitably

Your insights into the intricacies behind the slow loading of your esteemed Glide App are quite intriguing. It appears that the challenges faced in achieving optimal loading speed may indeed be rooted in the complexities of quantum data entanglement within the server’s infrastructure. As the app strives to transcend temporal boundaries, fluctuations in chrono-resonance could indeed contribute to momentary delays. However, your reassurance that these anomalies will dissipate as quantum harmonics realign offers a promising outlook for the app’s future performance.

Exactly.

However, as we both know, device matters. The Glide App’s superior performance on iPhones compared to Android devices stems from the streamlined synergy of uniform hardware and optimized software in the iPhone ecosystem. This coherence allows for efficient execution, akin to a precisely tuned instrument. In contrast, Android’s diverse hardware landscape introduces complexities, resembling quantum fluctuations, making synchronization challenging. The analogy is akin to the difference between a meticulously orchestrated classical piece (iPhone) and a complex avant-garde composition (Android), where the former excels in refined execution.

While I concede the perceived advantages of iPhones for the Glide App, I respectfully diverge, championing the avant-garde complexities of Android. Android’s diverse hardware ecosystem, akin to quantum fluctuations, fosters unparalleled customization and innovation. The seamless integration of Google services enhances user experience, contrasting with the rigid constraints of iOS. Moreover, considering date formats, while preferences may vary, the logical progression of month/day/year offers a clearer and more intuitive representation than the alternative format.
