i have a 20 gb table with over 100 million rows thats growing 1 million rows per day. i think it depends on what you trying to achieve my application distributes a big database over a bunch of machines so running a separate heavy server process was causing me problems and switching derby saved a lot of resources and application is much faster. but i am sure there is some body else's application that will be much faster under DB2 or oracle.

Hi,
Is there a limit on the number of rows a table can hold?
I am planning on using derby as the RDBMS for a system that will require tables to hold billions of rows.
Thanks, Tim
