1. Is this request related to a challenge you're experiencing? Tell me about your story.

Overview

In a specific workflow within Dify Enterprise, users frequently encounter a "Page Not Responding" dialog in the browser. Although the process appears to complete successfully when the page is refreshed or revisited, attempting to view execution history details results in similar timeout behavior.

Reproduction Conditions

User-side investigation has identified the following conditions under which the issue occurs:

  • The standard "Answer" node (marked in orange) is used to output a table containing input data and calculated results.
  • When the output size exceeds a certain threshold, the browser display freezes.
  • When the workflow is adjusted to bypass the affected nodes (4 instances), the issue no longer occurs.

Suspected Cause

It is suspected that large output data volumes are causing the browser to stall during rendering, leading to the observed unresponsiveness.

Request

We kindly request consideration for improvements to how large output data is handled in the browser. Potential solutions might include:

  • Lazy loading of output content
  • Collapsible table views
  • Asynchronous rendering of execution history details

2. Additional context or comments

No response
