Prevent Conditional Logic & Calculations from being Re-evaluated during Page Submissions

[lonepc]

Conditional logic and calculations are both re-evaluated during page submissions for multi-page forms. Since both conditional logic and calculations are done at the client side (the browser) using Javascript (see https://docs.gravityforms.com/enable-conditional-logic/#performance ), this can cause a significant performance issue.

It would therefore be very helpful if we could prevent conditional logic and/or calculations from being re-evaluated during page submissions.

Thank you for the suggestion. I will add your comments to the feature request.

Hey, I just ran across this article, which seemed pretty interesting and related:

Large and Laggy Gravity Forms

[lonepc]

@chrishajer, I also found that article but I am not able to “place the final product pricing fields into the last page” (see

How to Speed Up a Laggy Form

My form is very laggy and it seems to be due to “GFCalc.runCals”. Is there a way to limit calculations & conditional logic to the fields on the current page (ie. only the calculations and conditional logic for fields on the current page are evaluated?) A less ideal approach would be to initially replace the “Next” button on each page with a “Calculate” button that needs to be clicked before the “Next” option appears.

One of my biggest frustrations with Gravity Forms is how laggy large forms with many calculations can become. I really think optimizing Gravity Form performance should be a high priority.
