For those who were following this thread, After reuploading all of my data but reducing the class name from 12 characters to 1 and from reducing the non-key field from 4 characters to 1, I was able to reduce my total footprint from 530mb to 340mb for 1.45M entities. Yielding about 245 bytes per entity (including the default indexes).
Certainly wish I could get rid of the DESC index on my one property (for this entity type). On Mon, Jun 28, 2010 at 2:54 PM, Nate Bauernfeind < nate.bauernfe...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hmm.
