Hi @Gurjit86,
thanks for raising this, could you give some more context? How big is your dbt project? How many nodes - what size is the dbt manifest - what kind of adapter etc.

A note: The Colibri OSS HTML report scales with project size, You can try if the --light flag improves your report size: it leaves out some meta data.

That said, you just can't scale beyond a certain point without losing report quality.
You might want to explore if Colibri cloud works for you.
