Large databases

[Ace1247]

Hi,

Right now I am importing about 25k hands a day at full tilt. I want to start getting data for 2 limits at stars also so I can game select across sites. At what point does the database get too large and slow? Also, what is the best way to purge hands?

Thanks,

Sam

Hi,

A good few people are running 15 million + database without issues.

Id suggest purging hands with small pots or that dont make it to flop etc to keep it streamlined. Details of purging options here:
