Journals and Indexes Sizes and Outcomes
Posted: Wed Nov 08, 2023 4:43 am
Would it be possible to explain generally about sizing of index/journals, i.e. the outcomes/effects/pros/cons from such?
In particular, I'm referencing these settings:
I'm wondering generally what is the effect of increasing the sizes of each of them? Or decreasing sizes? What would gain better performance, or the "pros" of increased size? What would be the cons?
In what situation might you want to increase the size of a particular one, for those that have the available hardware resources available (lots of RAM and disk space/speed)?
Lastly, as a minor suggestion, I personally think it'd be great adding this general info to the popup tooltips themselves, for users like me that aren't knowledgeable on the workings/outcomes of settings like these. Also, adding the "Default size: XXXX" would be useful to, for users to know what to set it back to if an experiment needs reverting.
TIA!
