    Often I have variety of data sources in my Reports. Some of these data sources are quite large, and only need a daily refresh. Some of the other data sources are smaller, but need to be refreshed more often throughout the day.

    Presently all data sources must refresh at the same time when using the Schedule refresh. It would be nice to reduce my performance load by opting out some of my large sources from certain refresh times.

    I don't know if commenting adds any visibility to an idea, but THIS! I have several dashboards with sources that refresh overnight and additional sources with live data that we connect to and refresh multiple times a day. It would be INCREDIBLY more efficient if we could choose to update all sources during the first refresh and then only the live source(s) during any intra-day refreshes.
