The upper size limit for ANSI PST is 2 GB, for Unicode PST in Outlook 2007 is 20 GB, and while in Outlook 2010/2013/2016/2019 is 50 GB. No one recommends large PST files; oversized PSTs are always prone to corruption. Oversized PSTs degrades the performance, and the biggest threat is they are more likely to get corrupted.

In 2013 we first developed our multi-regional availability strategy in response to a catalyst that led us to re-architect the way our service operates. This approach worked well in 2013 due to the existence of monolithic services and a fairly uniform customer base, but became less effective as Netflix evolved.

So: Was I was right about 2013 estimates? release (early 2012) and probably another 18 months after that before most users will have upgraded (mid-2013). Then you’d be interested in judging what will be the likely mainstream hardware target up to mid-2013. Second, what about the higher potential line for 2013?

21 years later, in 2013, Google launched Brotli, a new algorithm that claims even greater improvement than Gzip! This spells great news for the web, where HTML, CSS, and JS have a very consistent and repetitive syntax. But, while Gzip is highly effective, it’s old; it was released in 1992 (which certainly helps explain its ubiquity).
