How much Proto can handle
Proto is built for big jobs as well as small ones. Here’s what to expect when you ask for a lot at once.
| You ask for… | What to expect |
|---|---|
| Changes to many records | Proto works through them in batches of up to 500 and confirms the totals at the end. |
| The same task across hundreds or thousands of items | The job runs in the background, shows progress in the todo list and ends with one summary. |
| Several large jobs at once | Proto runs a few at a time so your computer stays responsive, and queues the rest. |
| Work across many websites or desktop apps | Also runs a few at a time, for the same reason. |
For very large jobs, Proto saves progress as it goes. If a job is stopped, it can pick up where it left off instead of starting over.
Tip: For anything large, try a small sample first and check the result.
