Topic: Transaction request maximum entries

What should be the maximum number of entries in a bundle for batch/transaction?
An infinite number of entries can cause problems!
Grahame Grieve (May 22 2018 at 12:17):
I think that having an infinite number is probably too much
John Moehrke (May 22 2018 at 12:31):
so then infinity - 1
Grahame Grieve (May 22 2018 at 12:31):
yes, that would be one less then definitely too much - more like probably too much still
Michael Donnelly (May 22 2018 at 14:25):
Epic generally stops at 1,000, but for some resources that are large or particularly intensive to generate we'll go lower than that.
Lloyd McKenzie (May 22 2018 at 14:42):
It'll have to be context-specific. There'll be some use-cases where 100k is reasonable and others where you might need to tap out at less than 100. Think about what your clients are likely going to need and see what your server can reasonably handle.
Grahame Grieve (May 22 2018 at 17:42):
my server stops when it goes bang - I've never tested it's limit
Muhammad Abubakar Ikram (May 23 2018 at 09:18):
Spec should say something about that.
Grahame Grieve (May 23 2018 at 10:05):
well, it does, in the general sense: servers are free to (and need to) impose whatever limits they need to for performance / stability
