there is no limitation but lookups are stored on heap and you need to keep that in mind

Hi @Vijay Narayanan if i make the config (druid.lookup.namespace.cache.type) as offheap as per this document, will it still store on heap? https://druid.apache.org/docs/latest/development/extensions-core/lookups-cached-global.html#cache-settings
v
in that case they will be stored off heap but the lookups will still take up memory in the page cache (so ultimately the available RAM will be a hard limit).

got it thanks
One other question related to druid.processing.buffer.sizeBytes. currently we have this configured as 1Gb. Will there be a query performance improvement if we keep the value higher at say 3 GB?
v
max buffer size is 2GB. Setting buffer to max 2GB could help but there is a trade off as it will reduce available memory for memory mapping segments and hence segments will be paged from disk
