Hi Julian,

I have the UMLS version 2013AA installed. The index using the following
configuration contains 13,520,173 rows. The size is approximately 2.5 G
when I look specifically at the size of the tables for that configuration.
I don't think that would be a direct comparison though. I have a number of
index files created so I can only give what I think is the estimate --
total I am using 575G.

Here is the configuration:
  SAB :: include SNOMEDCT
  REL :: include PAR, CHD

Just in case this is different from yours.

I do not remember how long it took exactly. I started it on a Friday and
went away for the weekend. SNOMEDCT is the largest source so it normally
takes a couple days to process all of the nodes to create the index.

I hope this helps somewhat. Please let us know if you have additional
questions!

Best regards,

Bridget
