SettingDescription

Compression Codec

The compression algorithm used to compress pages when encoding. Valid choices are Uncompressed, Snappy, Gzip, Lzo, Brotli, Lz4, and Zstd. Default is Uncompressed.

Block Size

The Block Size is the size of a row group buffered in memory. Block size limits the memory usage when writing. Larger values improves improve I/O when reading, but consumes more memory when writing. The Default Block Size is 134217728.

Page SizeThe page is the smallest unit that must be read fully to access a single record. When reading, each page can be decompressed independently. If this value is too small, the compression deteriorates. The Default Page Size is 1048576.
Dictionary Page SizeThere is one dictionary page per column per row group when dictionary encoding is used. Dictionary page size works like the page size, but for dictionary encoding. Default is 1048576.
