Power bi dataflow and Premium Capacity

Hi All,
Since a few days we have connected two reports for testing with dataflows. These dataflows have an SQL source and are updated every hour via Power Automate. The report is also updated hourly via Power Automate. There are a total of 8 dataflows that flow into the Power BI report.
Now we have noticed that our P1 node is increasing in load per hour.

No incremental data update is set.
In the following figure we have the same reports only in different APPS. They are all updated from the same dataflow.
Does anyone have an idea why the load increases from hour to hour?

Kind Regards

HI @Till ,

 

Without truly getting into all the gory analytics on your site, I am curious - do you think that any of the flows are still runnign while other ones are starting?  I know that this happened to me once - we had a flow run much longer than expected and that made the other flows compete for resources (and the exact same data source in some cases).  In fact, we ended up getting failures, rather than just an increase in usage.  Might this be happening to you?

Hi @collinq 
Thank you for your answer.
That could be the reason.
I will fine-tune the flow update so that overlaps are avoided.
I will report back after the test.
Kind Regards
Till
