How big can the 5 (free) SDL Language Cloud termbases be?

It seems we get 5 free TBs in the SDL Language Cloud (right?), but how big can they be?

  • Ha ha, indeed.

    Well, e.g., my TMLookup database (which is for TMs, not TBs) contains around 50,000,000 TUs at the moment. I think my LogiTerm TMX collection has around 100,000,000 TUs, spread across a very large number of individual TMs (split into clients/subjects, etc.).

     

    I also have a very large collection of glossaries and termbases, which I have been collecting for years now (whch I call WORDBOOK; SEE: http://beijer.uk/WORDBOOK.html), probably over a 100 different ones by now, ranging from tiny glossaries with only 20-30 entries, to massive termbases, such as the IATE (via Henk Sanderson @ https://santrans.net) which is around 800,000 entries I think. My Big Mama, or Big Papa (can never remember which is which in DVX lingo) glossary is around 1 million entries, with a tons of metadata.

     

    I also have a massive online termbase, hosted by http://www.evoterm.net/en/Terminology.aspx (the people who host the late Graham Oxtoby's amazing Dutch<>English Groot Woordenboek Industrie & Techniek (GWIT) aka Comprehensive Dictionary of Information & Technology), which is where I dump literally everything, just in case. 

    Anyway, so my plan is to start testing the limits of Studio 2017’s TBs and TMs. I'm currently importing all my personal TMs into a single massive .sdltm, to see how big they can get, and still work well. I also want to see how really big TMs work with the new uplift / fragment aligning stuff.
