Capacity Limit of Reliable Collections in Stateful services

[usamaazhar]

What is the size restriction of Reliable Collections in service fabric? Is it the size of the memory or the disk?
I read the answer here but just want to be sure on official forum

Memory (Ram) is the first limit you are likely to hit but you absolutely must read this response from @masnider to understand the complexity of defining the limit

@olitomlinson Thanks Oliver. @usamaazhar in that answer I didn't even talk about Garbage Collection/Garbage overhead and Serialization:) TLDR: Generally start with memory as your limit and you may be able to do more optimizations to reduce that footprint and to take advantage of disk, but those are not applicable in all situations. Please let us know if you have any further questions (or feel free to propose edits to that SO question).
