CharlieS Storage Limits - any way to get around the 2k per record quota ?
I need to store a lot of very small objects - 2.5Million records with just a single field (18 character string)
My understanding is that Salesforce's storage calculator assumes that every record is 2k regardless of how complex/big/small it is, so Salesforce calculate that custom object as needing 5Gb storage space, which is just about as much as we have for the whole Org. I don't particularly want to pay Salesforce the extra storage cost.
Does anyone know of a way to store small objects more efficiently ?
thanks
Charlie
I don't think there is a way out of this for now. If you still wish then you can support this idea (Please go through the comments to see the other side of the issue)

What are these one-liners used for? You're not compiling a gigantuous list of pickup lines are you? Depending on the use-case you may be able to tweak your data model. Basically that's the only way.
Since you have 2.5 million values, you cannot use Apex to statically store them either -not even if you break them up into 2-3 classes since your total allotted code limit is 3 million characters per org.
They are a list of UK 'blacklisted' phone numbers that I need to wash against our contact / account phone numbers.
The only workaround i can think of is :
Instead if just 1 field, try to have more fields and wherever you are searching for blacklisted logic try to search in all fields. I know you have already must think of same. but just thought to share..
I guess the solution to your problem was fixed by Salesforce with Big Objects.
