Are all models slow to open in the morning?

Our model takes about 10 minutes to open every morning. Our implementation partner told us that is not uncommon for the first person to open it in the morning.

Is this something other users have experienced or is it a performance issue?

  • It is true that a model can take longer to open after a period of inactivity. A model automatically unloads from memory after about 60 minutes of inactivity, so thus when you "reopen" the model it is being brought back into active memory.

    However, without any context I would say 10 minutes seems like a extraordinary long load time. This may be indicative of performance issues. I'd recommend working with your Anaplan business partner to have some analysis run to see which formulas may be impacting performance and look for ways to optimize them.
