Hi Stepan -
Thanks for the question. Could you provide some context as to what you are looking for and the motivation? That might help our teams provide you the right information. You may also be interested in watching some of our past "Under the Hood" sessions from Empower. In general though, Quick Base is a special, in-memory, database. Formulas, evaluations, etc. all happen in the context of the running process in memory. We do have some things (such as Automations) that are specifically designed to run outside this context so that they can scale easier with volume (i.e., if a user needs to do processing on many records).
