According to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1dFmF3IJOI&t=3s minute 3:25, 2TB in Flash requires 75GB overhead in RAM. This means the 75GB only holds the index and not the data. The data are small blocks of 500B or less.
How can we calculate the overhead for the Redis index or Redis Search?
You can use the
FT.INFOcommand to get size and other information about your index:Ref: https://redis.io/commands/ft.info/
