Hi there, I have a question regarding key names in a document. I have a large collection and I am attempting to scale efficiently. I have stripped the keys down to just the minimum subset already. My question is regarding the size of the key names. Would there be any benefit in calling a key
n
instead of
full_name
for example, and handle the mappings appropriately on the frontend. (interested in impact to storage and memory - as the network impacts are obvious but not important in my use case)? Thanks!

👋 No impact on memory since key names don't repeat in memory. But we store the document on disk so disk storage will be lesser and so will be retrieval times. However, I don't see this making too much of a difference unless you have 100s of keys.
