How large should an external SQL Server database be for Stash.

[Mike Lange]

How should I be determining the size to make an external database for Stash?

[Michael Heemskerk · Accepted solution]

The size of Stash's database depends in large part on the number of repositories and the number of commits in those repositories.

A very rough guideline would be: 100MB + ((total number of commits across repos) / 2500) MB.

So, say you've got 20 repositories with an average of 25,000 commits you'd need 100Mb + (20 * 25,000 / 2500) MB = 300MB.

Can you please let me know whether Stash is dependent on HDD or SSD type of harddisk drive?
