To speed up processing time in tableau: Is it best to combine multiple calculated fields into one calculated field or best to have the equation broken out into pieces?

Thanks!

Both options are not related to optimization. However, it is a good practice to hide unused fields from the "tables" sidebar

I had partitioned a conditional statement into multiple calculated fields. Once I rolled up multiple calculated fields into one big conditional statement the dash processed significantly faster. I did delete the previous calculations as well. Just FYI in the case anyone else runs into this. Also, if you have custom shapes, check and make sure they aren't larger than 50kb. I was able to get most of mine down to less than 2kb by resizing to 30 x 30.
