Hey, thank you a lot for your hints. I have 20000000 records à 1KB. The key is a string like "user123456789". I am using the default backend bitcask. There is just one machine in the cluster and I didn't change the N-val. I already tried to insert the 20GB of data, but 40GB of memory were obviously not enough, because only 7000000 records were inserted. So I thought mybe 150GB should be enough?
