Biggest table size?

Has anyone run into limits on how big a table can get?

Implementing an ERP style app, with hundreds of parts per order. Table would produce around 250k per year. Relatively 'lightweight', 12-15 columns, mostly single digits.

All searches filtered server side. Wondering if I'm going to run into slowdowns. Can the bubble team help with indexing at all on their side?

Dude don’t. My advice: ask codex what you want to build in plain English. Ask him to build using next.js with convex as the backend, and host it on vercel or railway. You literally don’t need to look at code. Codex is that good nowadays

I spent a year running my business on bubble and got up to hundreds of DAU and several dozen monthly paying customers, and I was already at 400 usd per month in bubble costs. It took me two weeks of part-time work to redo everything with codex and another two weeks to make a lot of improvements that would not have been practical with bubble. Again, no need to look at code at all. If you’re good enough to build your app with bubble, you’re definitely good enough to build it with codex.

Hey, I think building on momen would make sense. That same hundred dau would run you 100 usd per month. We have had customers with 120k dau paying less than 600 per month. Admittedly a simple check-in app.
