03/06/2025, 10:15 AMthanks for helping; do I need to consider non-indexed fields as well in sizing; because i've given 64GB ram but its not even able to old a million records

03/07/2025, 6:42 AMNo, if you set a field as non-indexed, it won't be stored on RAM, just saved in disk.
But for a million records with 64GB of RAM, that means that your dataset is for sure more than 32GB in size, so your average record size would be at least 32KB which is really big. Is that the case?
