How much data can fit in RAM?
Panorama uses your computer’s RAM very efficiently. Because Panorama doesn’t use indexes (see below) Panorama databases are very small compared to FileMaker (typically six to ten times smaller). For example, one of the demo databases included with Panorama is a typical contacts database with 10,000 records and about two dozen fields — this database is only 2.2 megabytes! Some Panorama users have created databases with over one million records. Typically a Panorama database is about the same size as an ASCII text file containing the same data. Back to top.
