For LDAP, ServiceNow recommends 1000 records/ import. Is it the same for normal imports?

Hello Sudharsan,



Importing Very Large Data Sets : When very large data sets are imported in a single job.


Symptoms: The import job takes a long time to complete.


How to avoid this: Break a very large data set into multiple, smaller jobs for faster results. Consider import sets under 100,000 records as a guideline. For example, importing 10 sets of 100,000 records completes faster than one import of 1 million records even though the total data imported is the same.
