What is Pagesize in Azure Data lake import?

Hi

 

With the latest release of Power BI I have experienced some issues with existing Power BI reports connecting to Azure Data Lake files. One thing which I have found no explanation or documentation for is a new field called Pagesize at the same step as where I specify the adl:// URL. It sais that it is optional but nevertheless I have to put in a value to proceed. I just don't know what value and what it is and no google-searches have pointed me in the right direction. The load seems to go faster if I type in 100000 instead of 10, but that is all I know. Can anyone explain what it is or where to find information about this?

 

Thanks,

Jon

You can use up to 1099511531398.98 Bytes in the page size this will increse the performace when you are loading your data from DL. especially is there are big files.
