Why takes so much time to load on my pc?

I have 8gb ram with 250gb SSD and intel i7 processor. When I open the glide app it takes me 2-3 minutes to open completely till then it shows loading time, further to add these even after waiting for so long it shows me warning that my account will be open on read only mode and it shows error such as Oh! Sheet, can glide handle bulk data or it has some limitations to scale?

What is your internet connection like?

What do the results look like if you do a ping and traceroute to go.glideapps.com?

Actually I have bookmarked the glide app link, so instead of going to go.glideapps.com I directly click {go}.glideapps.com/app/WDLIdotplgErUXZzfaOe/layout (The link is broken intentionally for privacy reason + the link doesn’t includes the curly braces).

Post which it takes me much time to open finally, my internet speed is 22 mbps and one of my team mate’s speed is around 80-100 mpbs, irrespective of the internet speed both of us experience the same issue.

The reason I suggested a ping and traceroute to go.glideapps.com is that might give you an indication if there is a network routing issue between your location and the Glide cloud servers.

It doesn’t matter if your network connection is ten billion mbps, if there is a routing issue then you will have problems.

I’m trying to narrow down performance issues I’m having. Would you be able to interpret these results (Chromebase machine)? I went here to get ping and traceroute instructions for Chrome OS.

The ping result looks fine. ~20ms is good, and there are no dropped packets.
I’m not exactly sure about the “no reply” in the tracepath, but if there were routing issues you would expect to see dropped packets.

What exactly is the nature of the performance issue that you are experiencing?
Is it just slow initial loading, or something else?

For the most part the published app is fine. The builder is verging on unusable on and off with 10 second delays on keystrokes and mouse clicks.

I also have had a support ticket in progress for a long time that hit a dead end - data in the builder just won’t refresh sometimes. I’ll see a small subset while the published app is showing all the data.

And I had a streak last week of getting 1060 errors multiple times a day, but that has subsided.

My gut is telling me these things are connected, but I don’t have a solid plan of attack to figure it out. Buy a new computer, haha! I’m using a Chromebase, but not being on a PC or Mac didn’t help Glide Support to troubleshoot the missing data issue.

That would suggest to me that your App could very heavy in terms of rows and/or computed columns. And maybe your browser doesn’t have enough RAM to cope.

I’ve started keeping an eye on that but haven’t seen anything crazy. There certainly are a lot of computed columns and 23K rows. What should I be looking for?
