Hi James,
Is it right to assume that with auto-commit set to true, the mutate maxSize
being exceeded error would not occur? This should be because now server side
does the commit automatically when the batch size is reached/ buffered.
Thanks,Sumit

That config setting (phoenix.mutate.maxSiize) is just a safety valve to prevent
out of memory errors and may be set to whatever you like. However, if you're
going to just turn around and do a commit after running your upsert statement,
performance will improve if you turn on auto commit instead
(connection.setAutoCommit(true)), as that'll prevent double buffering and
enable execution completely on the server side when possible.
Thanks,James

I found today that I can't execute this:
UPSERT INTO loadtest.testing (id, firstname, lastname) SELECT NEXT VALUE FOR
loadtest.testing_id_seq, firstname, lastname FROM loadtest.testing
when the table has more than 500,000 rows in it ("MutationState size of 512000
is bigger than max allowed size of 500000").
Is there a reason for the restriction, or a way of lifting it so that things
get processed in batches?
Does this also mean that if I had a large table, and I wanted to (say) null
out one of the columns, I wouldn't be able to do it in one hit because I'd be
changing too many rows?
