useUpdateMany initalised many times across parameter fields
There seems to be a cost of initialisingthe the useUpdateMany hook which is only really noticable when say over fifty times in a view in a table

Hi @Joe Gaffney. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
The
useUpdateMany
hook in Refine is designed to handle the process of updating multiple records at once. However, if you are initializing this hook many times (e.g., over fifty times) within a single view, it can indeed lead to performance issues due to the overhead of multiple hook initializations.
To mitigate this, you should consider the following strategies:
1. Batch Updates: Instead of initializing useUpdateMany
multiple times, try to batch your updates. You can collect the changes and then call mutate
once with all the necessary updates.
2. Optimize Hook Usage: Ensure that you are not unnecessarily re-initializing the hook. Place the hook initialization at a higher level in your component hierarchy if possible, and pass down the mutate
function to child components.
3. Memoization: Use memoization techniques to avoid re-initializing hooks unnecessarily. React's useMemo
or useCallback
can be helpful here.
Here is an example of how you might use the useUpdateMany
hook efficiently:
For more detailed information on how to use the useUpdateMany
hook, you can refer to the Refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/data/hooks/use-update-many/).
If you need to see an example in action, you can try the example provided in the Refine repository:

- Ant Design Example (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/tree/master/examples/table-antd-use-update-many)
You can also run these examples locally using the following commands:

By following these strategies, you should be able to reduce the performance overhead associated with initializing the useUpdateMany
hook multiple times.

@kapa.ai they are eseenitally unique feilds that have there own updates inside the table. Its not the performance when calling the mutate method just of initliazing the hook
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
If you have unique fields that require their own updates inside a table and the performance issue arises from initializing the
useUpdateMany
hook multiple times, you can consider the following strategies to optimize the initialization process:
1. Single Hook Initialization: Initialize the useUpdateMany
hook once and manage the updates through a centralized function. This way, you avoid the overhead of multiple hook initializations.
2. Context or State Management: Use React's context or state management libraries (like Redux) to manage the updates. This allows you to initialize the hook once and dispatch updates as needed.
Here is an example of how you might initialize the useUpdateMany
hook once and manage updates through a centralized function:
In this example:
- The useUpdateMany
hook is initialized once.
- Updates are collected in the updates
state.
- The handleUpdate
function is used to collect updates for each unique field.
- The applyUpdates
function is used to batch and apply all collected updates at once.

hook, you can refer to the Refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/data/hooks/use-update-many/).

@kapa.ai but if i put the update hook in a context would it not trigger all the components to re-render
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
Using a context to manage the
useUpdateMany
hook can indeed lead to unnecessary re-renders if not handled properly. However, you can mitigate this by using memoization techniques and ensuring that the context value does not change unless necessary.
Here’s how you can achieve this:
1. Create a Context: Create a context to provide the mutate
function from the useUpdateMany
hook.
2. Memoize the Context Value: Use useMemo
to ensure the context value only changes when necessary.
3. Use the Context in Components: Consume the context in your components to access the mutate
function without causing unnecessary re-renders.
Here’s an example:
In this example:
- The UpdateManyProvider
initializes the useUpdateMany
hook and provides the mutate
function via context.
- The contextValue
is memoized using useMemo
to prevent unnecessary re-renders.
- The useUpdateManyContext
custom hook is used to consume the context in MyComponent
.
By following this approach, you can ensure that the mutate
function is accessible throughout your component tree without causing unnecessary re-renders.
For more detailed information on how to use the useUpdateMany
hook, you can refer to the Refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/data/hooks/use-update-many/).

By using context and memoization effectively, you can manage the useUpdateMany
hook without causing unnecessary re-renders.

@kapa.ai is there anyway to reduce the overhead of initlising the useUpdateMany hook why is the cost high
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
The overhead of initializing the
useUpdateMany
hook multiple times can be attributed to the internal workings of React hooks and the additional logic that useUpdateMany
brings from Refine. Each initialization involves setting up state, context, and possibly side effects, which can accumulate and lead to performance issues when done excessively.
To reduce the overhead, consider the following strategies:
1. Single Hook Initialization: Initialize the useUpdateMany
hook once and manage updates through a centralized function. This avoids the repeated setup cost.
2. Memoization: Use React's useMemo
or useCallback
to memoize the hook's return values and functions, ensuring they are not recreated unnecessarily.
3. Context Management: Use React context to provide the mutate
function to child components, ensuring the hook is only initialized once.
Here’s an example of how you might initialize the useUpdateMany
hook once and manage updates through a centralized function:
In this example:
