@MichaelSSA  - I'm trying to think of other avenues to try and get this to work.  Yes, we can connect to Tableau, but, as you mentioned, there is no way we can download all that data in a timely manner.  I'm going to try a couple of things such as a scheduled job to see if I can do a full export overnight and then see if that file can be opened easier in Tableau or something to that effect.  

Only thing is that the data technically would be "old" because it would be from the night before (if you run the scheduled job nightly).  But I'm going to try some other avenues and report back.
