Hiii ! looking for some guidance to improve the page sped 😀

I am currently creating a large number of static collection pages, but I have noticed that these pages load very slowly.

After investigating the cause, I found that the data is being loaded from a JSON file, and the JSON file itself is quite large. I assume that a separate JSON file is being created for each static collection.

If we were to split the JSON files into smaller parts (as currently, a single collection contains a large amount of data), would this improve the loading speed?

Or is there another recommended approach to optimize performance?

I appreciate your guidance.

Hi @Jay12 ,

A static collection implies it’s fast, but that’s not necessarily the case. I noticed quite a delay using static collections compared to dynamic collections - fetching each time from Xano (which could also be Xano sending url’s to media/data stored somewhere else).

And then there’s the question how to optimize/structure the content of your data(collection/request) - as there’s only so much (data) you can display on a screen at one time. But you might just benefit quite a bit from switching static to dynamic collection.
