Hello everyone, We are evaluating Monet right now to store and analyze a huge quantity of data. We have several facts collection that range from 1 million row, 200 cols. to way over 300 million rows and over 10.000 columns. We are aware of memory limitations of current Monet version and looking forward to the new one but in the meantime we'd like to do some performance and load tests. In order to know which data we will be able to store, we need to know how much memory will use a BAT depending on the datatype and the number of elements we want to store in it. Is there a lineal relation between those variables (ie. 8 bytes oid, 8 bytes int => 16 bytes per element) or do Monet encode data using intervals or such? Thank you in advance and kudos for your big efforts, Guillermo Arbeiza, Open Sistemas de Información e Internet garbeiza(AT)opensistemas.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Mensaje enviado por el servidor de openSistemas (www.opensistemas.com)
