| **Optimize Visuals and Interactions** | Limit the number of visuals per report page and simplify complex interactions to improve performance. | Use [Optimize ribbon in Power BI Desktop](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/desktop-optimize-ribbon) to pause visuals and control query execution during design. |
142142
| **DirectQuery Optimization** | Use features from the Optimize ribbon to streamline DirectQuery interactions and reduce redundant queries. | Follow methods in [DirectQuery optimization scenarios with the Optimize ribbon in Power BI Desktop](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/desktop-optimize-ribbon-scenarios) to adjust visual refresh behavior. |
