I have a Confluence space with full of table include macros with extremely poor performances.

* I have a Confluence space full of "table include" macro along with "Table Excerpt Include" Macro and most of the pages are taking longer load time and sometimes freeze the browser or crash the browser. 

* Even though the "Output cached results"  option is enabled in in each "Table Excerpt Include" Macro it still behaves the same for me.

* My Confluence is hosted in an AWS clustered environment with two nodes and the Confluence version is 7.19.18.

* Anybody has a way of handling this situation?

Hi @sudarshana ramesh jayawardana amadoru ,

The Table Excerpt/Table Excerpt Include macros are our macros that belong to the Table Filter, Charts & Spreadsheets app.

Indeed the "Output cached results" option was introduced to improve the performance of the page if you collect a lot of excerpts containing multiple-row tables.

But still Confluence is not supposed to perform as a database. If you browser crashes, it means that it is out of memory and can't process such amount of information. 

So, you may try to "lighten" your pages. For example, put only one Table Excerpt Include macro per page.

Hi Stiltsoft Support,

Thank you so much for your advice and will try to break it down to the parent/child page structure to see how it's handling.

Hi Stiltsoft Support,

* When I discussed this with my users who have reported this they only stated behaving this way after upgrading the "Table Filter, Charts and Spreadsheets for Confluence" version "10.4.0" which is the latest marketplace version as a part of our Confluence LTS upgrade to 7.19.18.

* In the plugin manager I can see one module named "Spreadsheet from Table" that shows as disabled.  

* Does this make any impact on the performance of the app?

*Please see the screenshot attached.

Hi @sudarshana ramesh jayawardana amadoru ,

If you think that the slowness began after the update, you may refer to our support - we are not aware of any performance issues for the 10.4.0 version. So, we'll be able to discuss the issue more via the confidential portal.

By the way, the current version is 10.5.0, you may update the app as well.

What concerns the inactive module, it has nothing to do with the issue that you describe. It only means that the Spreadsheet from Table macro is disabled by default and you need to enable it manually if you want your users to use it in your instance.

You can read more about the Spreadsheet from Table macro here.
