Premium Per User Max Query Size

Hi all,

My organization has a P1 Premium license, but it seems I'm running into a model size issue as one of my PBI files is greater than 3 GB (it's about 4 GB). Does anyone know the model size limit for Premium Per User? I can only find total limits, not per model.

For Premium 25 GB

For PPU 100 GB.

These limits are per dataset. There is no total limit regarding memory.

Divide these numbers by 2 if these datasets need to be refreshed on the service.

You will probably hit the memory limit in case you have bad performance queries that materalize a lot of data during their execution. More likely to be stopped by the CPU limit rather than the memory limit
