-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have 9.8 million documents which in a text file one document per line JSON encoded comes out as 2.3Gb. Once loaded into couchdb, 21Gb of space is consumed (after the 24 hours it takes to do a compaction!). Accounting for the _rev field this amounts to a nine times expansion of disk space.
Is this massive expansion expected? Are there any plans to make it more reasonable? I am going to regenerate my data so that it uses way shorter ids instead of random 16 byte ones.
