Speed of screen updates from database

How data heavy is your Rent Roll datatype? Does it contain images or lists? From what I’ve read, a heavy datatype will take longer to load since Bubble is loading more onto the page from that datatype than is displayed. Also I’ve read that heavy datatypes take longer to search.

If your datatype is heavy, you could try a few things:

  1. Getting rid of long lists
  2. Using privacy settings to limit the amount of data Bubble loads onto the page
  3. Splitting your datatype. Have a bare-bones entry for what you’re trying to search and display in the list, and then put all the heavier stuff into a connected datatype that is used for details display
