Vocabulary size limitation

Hi all,

Is there no way to get rid of the size limitation of 2 GB about column vocabulary size ? As qlik sense is able to read it's qvd files with such columns, maybe is there a technical solution about this ?

Thanks and best regards,
Chris

Hi Chris,

We will make a few improvements in the next version. They will not remove the limit entirely but will significantly increase it, especially for columns with long text values.

Let's see if that helps.

Hi Chris,

In version 5.8, the vocabulary size limitation was lifted. The 2GB limit no longer applies, so larger QVD files can be imported. While the import may still fail if a column is larger than the application can currently handle, this is no longer tied to a specific constant. Therefore, the import action should be able to handle potentially much larger QVD vocabularies.

Hi Vlad,

Thanks for this information. Back from holiday yesterday I tried to open the file that I wasn’t able to open with version 5.7 and it works. I’ve also noticed that the qvd files open much faster than earlier.
Nice job !

Best regards,
Chris
