</div>Hi,<br>
<br>
It is expected that the indexing phase takes a while for very large<br>
trace. It could probably be optimized a bit too, since we haven't spent<br>
much time on performance improvements. Good news is that once indexed,<br>
it will be faster to reopen the same trace later on.<br>
<br>
We have not yet implemented a percentage progression monitor for the<br>
indexing job. This is not trivial since it has to be implemented<br>
differently depending on the trace type, but would definitely be nice to<br>
have.<br>
<br>
If you use the latest master branch, the timestamps for the start and<br>
end of the histogram are now correctly formatted, so it is possible to<br>
know roughly where the indexing is at, provided you know the end time of<br>
your trace. I'd suggest trying that out to make sure it's not stopping<br>
at some point, which would be a bug.<br>

<br>
</div>There is no theoretical limit on the trace size that can be imported. It<br>
is capped only by your patience ;) and the amount of available disk<br>
space, since the index files can be quite big too.<br>
<br>
