Modern computers have much more RAM than needed

No, this is CACHE only. Also Valentina uses RAM for BitSets and ArraySets.

E.g. Million records bitSet this is 128K
Million records ArraySet - this is 4Mb

So what is average size of your dbs? What is MAXIMAL size of your dbs?
This info can give you WORSE CASE of RAM usage.

You see. You cannot count on users !!!

One user can touch one record only per query. Other user can touch 10
millions records.  You see?
