SmartSuite has enhanced Chart and Chart Widget performance by shifting value calculations to the backend, allowing for smoother rendering and support for larger datasets.

‍

Key Highlights:

  • Backend Processing for Chart Calculations: All calculations are now performed server-side, eliminating the need to load all records on the frontend.
  • Improved Performance & Scalability: Resolves previous limitations on large datasets (~5K+ records), enabling faster chart rendering.
  • Seamless Widget Updates: Backend-calculated values ensure faster, smoother display in dashboard widgets.

‍

How It Works:

  • When a chart widget is added or modified, calculations occur in the backend instead of the browser.
  • The frontend receives only the processed data, ensuring faster load times and reduced memory usage.
  • Users can still modify chart settings, with updates processed without performance degradation.

‍

This update significantly enhances chart responsiveness, reliability, and scalability, ensuring a seamless experience when visualizing large data sets in SmartSuite.
