Live Mesh's limitation
According to a recent post in the official blog of Live Mesh, the following is a quick summary of the upper bounds the team has tested.
- Size of all contents in a single Live Folder is 10GB (however there's still the 5GB quota which limits how much you can synchronize with Live Desktop)
- Individual file size: 2GB
- Items (file or folders) per Live Folder: 100,000
- Members per Live Folder: 200
- Number of Live Folders per user: 200
- Number of devices per user: 100
Below is the limitation of the file format.
- files leading by ~
- desktop.ini
- thumbs.db
- hidden files
- Windows system folder
- desktop folders (e.g. C:\Users\[myusername]\Desktop in Vista, or C:\Documents and Settings\[myusername]\Desktop)
- files and folders in portable desk
A (potential) good news is that Live Mesh team has promised the exceeding of these boundaries in a visible future.
Enjoy~
