    Hi, melo-loadsmart 

    The model size limit for premium per user is 100GB Per User.

    I checked this document (Power BI Premium Per User FAQ ), but I didn’t find any description about 10GB.

    The document has been updated recently, please recheck the content .

Hi melo-loadsmart 


The initial upload limit of the PBIX file size is limited to 10GB


The total dataset memory size once expanded within the Power BI Service is 100GB.

    GilbertQ  - Can you expand on 

    The total dataset memory size once expanded within the Power BI Service is 100GB.

    I'm considering moving from Premium Capacity to Premium Per User (we only have 100 or so Users), but I noticed the main difference was the limit moving down from 400GB to 100GB.  

     

    Our main Dataset is a 1.8GB file, but it contains maybe around 60GB of data (mostly coming from Dataflows).  How can you tell how much memory you are actually using with a Dataset in Service?
