# Streaming Results & Async Loading

## **Streaming results and async loading**

When you execute a long-running query, TablePlus will not wait until the results fully loaded to show them, but to start streaming the results as it loads, immediately right after you execute the query.

Loading the results is also a background task which doesn't block the UI. So it allows you to work on other tasks while waiting for it to be loaded.
