Max Attribute

[TinaS]

Is there any maxium number of attributes in Zen Cart, is it possible to have too many?

[Ajeh]

There isn't a maximum but you are limited to the configuration of the server as to the speed on the draws of the product_info as attributes are, at this time, more intensive than we like ...

I have customers who can run on servers with 80-120 attributes without a problem and others who slow down at 20 ...

How many attributes do your products have?

Linda,

I believe that Tony might have told you of this site. It's auto carpets, and there are 23,198 products with about 100 attributes on each.

The attributes table is now at 3,138,000+ and we are still not done adding attributes.

The database in whole (with only 9 customers and 2 orders and a CONSTANT clean of the admin activity) is already 426 meg and rising.

Inquiring minds wanna know if this gonna blow up Zen or Tony's Server or ......

Hi Linda

while there are several Million total attributes,
there are only a few per product,

what I believe they were asking is what is the TOTAL number of attributes that zen can handle as a whole not per product
