What this says
As at Fri 9 Oct 2026Alan Rennie reported slow performance on complex queries. Bethan Lister found they were running complex joins across connectors during nightly refresh, hitting memory limits. She made optimisations to query processing. Closed 7 March 2026.
Problem: complex queries were running slowly, especially during nightly refresh. Handling: Bethan investigated query logs, identified memory bottlenecks during concurrent operations, and made optimisations. Escalated to Felix for platform-level investigation. Watch: query performance issues could impact user satisfaction if not fully resolved.

- Public reply · Alan Rennie 11 Feb 2026 09:39We've got some queries that are taking a long time to complete.
- Public reply · Alan Rennie 11 Feb 2026 10:18Is there anything on your side that could be slowing things down?
- Public reply · Bethan Lister 11 Feb 2026 11:52Hi Alan, thanks for flagging that. I can help investigate. Can you tell me which specific queries are running slow? And roughly how long they're taking?
- created · Alan Rennie 11 Feb 2026 14:04Hi team, we're noticing the brain is quite slow when we run complex queries. Sometimes it takes a while to get results back. Can you look into this?
- Internal note · Bethan Lister 11 Feb 2026 14:30Looking at the query logs. Account is running complex joins across multiple connectors during the nightly refresh. Hitting memory limits. May need to optimise the data model or batch queries differently. Escalating to Felix.
- Public reply · Bethan Lister 11 Feb 2026 21:33Hi Alan, I've had a look at your query patterns. You're running some quite complex queries which can take time while the nightly refresh is happening. I've made a couple of optimisations to how we're processing those. Can you give it a try tomorrow morning and let me know if it's faster? Thanks, Bethan
