Hi,<br>
<br>
As far as I know, there is no particular limiting data size that
MapServer can work with. A lot will depend on how you optimize the
data (see <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://mapserver.org/optimization/index.html">http://mapserver.org/optimization/index.html</a> ). I am
currently working on a map that has more than 60GB of vector data
(shapefiles) and 64GB of raster data (geotiffs). There are other
methods not discussed in the optimization document that can also be
explored (e.g. using shp2tile/tile4ms, to create tiled shapefiles so
that only the required features are considered for a given map extent)
but I would suggest trying out the described methods to see if they
suffice. In my experience, one of the best ways to speed up the
drawing of vector layers is to limit the use of filters and class
expressions on large data files.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>

<div>Hi everybody I search about the data handling capacity and also
the performance of umn mapserver in the mailing list but I can't find
an exact answer to my question. I want to execute a database nearly 5
GB and only the vector data (shapefiles) and may be one raster map will
be in my database. What do you think about the data handling
performance of the 5 GB data and also the maximum data capacity of the
mapserver? </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Coul you please give me information or information link
about the question. </div>

<div>Thanks..</div>
