Hi @mwiegand,
As you have noticed yourself, the preview of the table is busy rendering very long strings.
Thanks @mwiegand for sending me your workflow. I could observe the behavior as well. When I tried @wiswedel’s fix in the current nightly the table preview loads much faster. It is still noticeable when scrolling that loading and displaying the long strings takes some time – which makes sense as it still needs to display a lot of data – but it does not get stuck.
For the time being, it would be best to filter out the string column that contains the binary representation of the image before looking at the table view. I’d argue that this column is not very human readable anyways…
Trying to open another workflow after switching back to the default row based backend, worth to note that I did not reset and calculated the data, loading the workflow does never finish.
I’m not sure whether I got this right. Is step 2 what you were saying?
- you had workflow A open which used the columnar backend
- you re-configure this workflow to use the row-based backend (this does reset all nodes)
- you try to open workflow B, but this never finishes?
Best,
Carsten
