Reduced network load (RNL)

Enabling Reduced Network Load should improve perfomance when the Tabular database and files are placed on a “slow” shared network. By default it is set to ON and can be changed here.
Note, turning off RNL can negatively affect the system and decrease the perfomance.

When RNL is ON it uses a local cache of the main Tabular database for reading transactional Tabular data and some static data.
On the workbook save action the local DB is synced from the network. Tabular logging is also sent to the local cache folder and saved up to network logging folder on the save return action.

By default local folder path is set to ‘%Appdata%\Tabular’. Note, that path can be updated here: SystemAdmin > Settings > DB Options.
