Hi!

The Llistit2 module help mentions limitations due to the type of database used.

So how does this really affect the module?

Where are the limits? The help says "not for thousands of entries" but there is an example for returned items per page stating "limit='100000'" ... so I wonder.

In my case, each database item has about 40 fields (if that helps to determine limits).

So how many items could I add? 10? 100? 1000? ...?

And is this an overall limit (all instances accumulated) or is it per instance?

Cheers,
Alex

There is no so called limit, it is there so you realize fact that more fields you add, more database queries it produces.

More queries it produces, more time is needed and more memory is used.

It was tested with single page load with 20 000 items and 10 or 15 fields attached per item, can't remember for sure.

Limitation is per instance, not in general.

Admin page limit is set statically max to 1000 items, cause that's what it can take in theory and still function with "ok" performance, depending how many field summaries you are showing in summary table.

It all depends how much resources your provider can give to system.
