The Performance analyzer records the duration in milliseconds for visuals to calculate their display values and write their results to the screen. The results for each visual are broken down into three elements:
- DAX query
- Visual display
- Other
Here, the DAX query portion represents the amount of time between the visual sending the DAX query and Analysis Services returning a result. The Visual display portion consists of the amount of time required for the visual to draw on the screen. The Visual display component also includes any time required to retrieve web images and perform geocoding. The Other component includes the time required to prepare the query, the time spent waiting on other visuals to complete, and the time spent on background processing.
