Versions

Hi,

Is there any best practice considering the number of versions an object can have?

Is there any limit to the number of versions an object can have?

Whats the effect of having more versions of an object performance-wise?

 

Thanks and Regards

    The only thing this should really have an affect on is storage space, but it would have to be a very, very extreme case in order for there to be any detriments from this. However, one other side effect is lack of value if there are a ton of versions. As Larry mentioned, a good practice might be to, when making a change and saving often in order to not lose or to test your changes, only keep the final version of your change and delete the others. This way the versions would be more tied to actual commits or releases rather than having tons of versions for every small change that was made while trying to get something to work and it would be much simpler to compare the versions if trying to determine which one is potentially causing an issue.
