Re: How to set up an extremely large database

First, a bit of perspective. 1M rows is about the 80th percentile of tables, so I don't call it "extremely large"; I would say that about a billion rows.

A convenient rule of thumb for a table without any TEXT or BLOB columns is to say 200 bytes per row. So, your description adds up to well under a 1GB. On the other hand, your storeys may add a few GB.

Again, the 80th percentile for table size (in bytes this time) is about 170GB.
