Dealing with large objects in the cache

Client SDKs

Apollo blocks the main thread for 10s when receiving large objects:

I’m not normalising these large objects:

      // Dimensions can have a large number of items. Creating a cache entry for each item
      // can cause a lot of CPU and memory usage on the client. This embeds dimension items
      // and all structures inside the item into the parent dimension's cache.
      // https://www.apollographql.com/docs/react/caching/cache-configuration/#disabling-normalization
      DimensionItem: {
        keyFields: false,
      },

      DimensionMapping: {
        keyFields: false,
      },

      DimensionItemDataSourceLink: {
        keyFields: false,
      },

      DimensionDataSourceLink: {
        keyFields: false,
      },

Is there anything I can do to avoid Apollo from traversing these huge objects? I already tried setting assumeImmutableResults but that didn’t help.

Appreciate your help!

Did you ever figure anything out with this? This seems related to my problem in Slow updates with large cache.
