The maximum size of the hash table

[linnilbobo]

I want to create a hash table that can store more records,
(I wonder if there is a way to store more data in a single hash table besides nested )
although I know that in actual use, I will not use such a large amount at all.

If I mentioned a repeated or resolved problem, please send a connection and point me to the correct page; if the problem cannot be solved temporarily, it’s no big deal.
Thanks for help

The builtin hash-table can grow to contain a theoretical maximum of 2^31 entries.
At that size it would consume 56GiB of memory which is probably not the best storage choice.
