When deploying via the XMLA endpoint , deployment time is impacted by the storage format of the semantic model.
Large semantic model storage format (also known as Premium/Large models) supports more efficient processing and partitioned deployments, reducing overall deployment time for large models.
Small semantic model storage format is for smaller models and limits partitioning capabilities.
" Users can edit data models in the service " is unrelated to deployment optimization.
" Enable Cache for Shortcuts " improves query performance for shortcut data, not model deployment.
