#shorts Free 15–20% Speed Boost in Dataflow Gen 2 — Enable the Modern Evaluator Engine Now

Did you know there is a free performance improvement sitting inside your Dataflow Gen 2 in Microsoft Fabric — and most people have not enabled it yet? In this short clip from my Fabric Insider Ep. 3 interview with Miguel Escobar — PM for Power Query and Dataflows at Microsoft — we talk about the Modern Evaluator Engine: what it is, why it makes Dataflow Gen 2 faster, and exactly how to enable it. Here is the key insight in plain English: The Power Query engine that runs inside Dataflow Gen 2 in Fabric is on a newer .NET runtime compared to the engine that runs in Power BI Desktop. This newer runtime alone delivers 15 to 20% faster execution — you complete the same job in less time, with no other changes. Here is how to turn it on: Open your Dataflow Gen 2 in Fabric Go to Options Navigate to the Data Flow subsection Click Scale Enable Modern Evaluator Engine That is it. One toggle. 15–20% faster.
