Hi everyone
I’ve noticed that the UI in Alma/Primo can sometimes feel a bit slow or unresponsive, especially when navigating between records or loading larger datasets.

Would it be possible to improve overall performance and responsiveness, particularly for users working with high volumes of data? Even small optimizations in loading times could make a big difference in daily workflows.
Is this something already planned, or has anyone found workarounds to improve the experience?
Thanks!

Hi,
I’ve noticed the same issue, especially when working with larger datasets or moving quickly between multiple records. The interface can take a few seconds to respond, which can become quite noticeable during day-to-day work.
I think improvements to caching, page loading, and the way large datasets are handled could make the experience much smoother. Even small reductions in loading times would have a real impact for users who work with Alma/Primo throughout the day
I’d also be interested to know whether Ex Libris has any performance improvements planned, or whether there are recommended settings or workarounds that can help improve responsiveness in the meantime.
Thanks for raising the topic!

Hi everyone, this is a great point. I also think Alma/Primo should be faster and more streamlined, especially when working with big data. Small speed improvements can really help a lot in daily work. Maybe some updates are already coming or simple fixes could be used for a better experience. Tools like Executor Delta like https://deltaexecutor.fr/ also remind us how useful fast and simple systems are. Thanks for sharing this useful idea!
