How large of a project until Resolve gets bogged down?

PostFri Jan 28, 2022 8:53 pm

Just wondering if Resolve will get bogged down if I create a project with ALL my music libraries (on external hard drive) were brought into a single project? I need to organize and create key words to search tracks. Basically, looking to use Resolve as a content browser to search different types of music.
Would also like to do it with 12 TB of video but that seems Like too much.

i have 250+ Tb of footage on my system today, 5 feature film"s cam orig, a few more films that are near completion and are media managed, plus a pile of archival footage for long term clients
i use dynamic project switching, and often have several projects alive at once

12Tb seems pretty trivial, that's a few days rushes if shot in ArriRAW

should add my machines have 128g sys ram, that might have an effect on how transparent the system responds with alot of media indexed, i often see Resolve using 70g of sys ram
