Order of Data Connection...would it matter?

Merry Christmas and thank you always for your guidance.
I would like to ask 1 question today…

I have 12 data connections (Qaas). When I open the dashboard, they seem to start refreshing at the same time.

*I insert Loading Message as 1 to Excel Sheet, and use Spreadsheet Component to show. (please see attached). But the time it takes is different for each data connection.

Is there any way to prioritize 1 data connection to others? I put important ones at the top of the list in the Data Manager, but it does not seem to work…

Thanking you in advance…

I have never seen a way to prioritize the data connections. And in watching some of my slower dashboards load, it seems to be pretty random. The main thing is that I always design my dashboards to not wait for the data to show the components. At least the user has something to look at even if the data load is not complete.
