do as... massive speed improvement

Hi All

 

Has anyone seen the documentation about speed improvements in Ninox?

https://docs.ninox.com/en/use-cases/tips-and-tricks-for-fast-databases

I tested their use of do as...

This code took 2 mins 23 secs to run

for i in range(1000) do
    create Test
end

Whereas this code took less than 2 seconds to run!

do as transaction
    for i in range(1000) do
        create Test
    end
end

    I thought the do as Transaction would be a great command, but sometime I get the following error on the web version of Ninox:

    Nothing that is show stopping, but annoying.

    It is interesting that I find that the Ninox app on my new M2 MacBook Pro does things faster than the browser version. Tables and dashboards load faster. Even scripts run faster, that is why I wanted to use do as Transaction as that allows Ninox to use the app on my MBPro when I use it and on the server when I'm on my windows machine.

      Fred Hi Fred, How can I implement the do as server in this script. Work perfect on Android but too slow on Windows

      let vDd := CutOff_;
      let check := dialog(" Warning ", " ¿Confirm the Update Progress Project for Goole Graph ? ", ["Yes", "No"]);
      if check = "Yes" then
          for loop1 in select CutOff do

      You can try putting it after the if check = "Yes" line, remember to add an extra end at the bottom. Since you have dialog and alerts you can't wrap the whole thing in a do as server. I'm not sure if Ninox can pass things along between client and server properly, but you can try it out.

    Yep

    Using do as ... does make a considerable difference - especially if you are on the web version and have big data tables, cos all the processing is done at the server end before handing it back for display etc.
