I think I can safely say that I am running one of the largest databases in production today: highest FID 762D (30,253 FIDs decimal) with a database file size of just over 4MB. I think the hard published limit was somewhere around 28,000 FIDs decimal.

Can you run v3 at all with this database? I "only" have about 20.000 FIDs and had to do a lot to make this work on v3.

I upgraded my mk2 to an mk2a, disabled all third party apps, use mp3tofid to dramatically reduce the database size (from over 4 MB to 2.3 MB), and reduced the cache size to the bare limit.

Now I can use v3 without much trouble, but I still cannot play the root playlist without crashing the player. And of course, the harddisks hardly ever spin down.

I wonder if I'm the only one considering a memory upgrade just to make v3 work more reliably...
