Hi,

I created a low volume custom object, but during the imports we added more and more data, and now it contains 1.8M records.

 

As the maximum should be 1M, what should I expect from it? Which problems may happen?

Really curious. :D

 

Thanks

I haven’t found any documentation specifically related to the pitfalls of adding more than 1M records for low volume custom objects. From a generic database perspective, I would expect to see slower system performance, updates taking longer to display, and even possible data corruption through APIs.

Hi @pope1chase it is indeed what Support told me.

I can say that even with 3 M records I didn’t see any performance reduction, but I nonetheless decided to switch to a ahigh volume object.
