The Db.Zip dataset at 4.37 GB is well-suited for single-node deployment on modern hardware, with no immediate pressure to distribute. At 258.8 bytes per row across 16.9 million rows, the dataset exhibits moderate density; compression could yield 30–40% space reduction if applied to text-heavy tables, though gains depend on column selectivity. The 13-table structure suggests normalized design, which typically compresses less aggressively than denormalized alternatives. This footprint remains below the practical threshold where distributed query overhead becomes justified—scale to 50+ GB would warrant re-evaluation of node architecture.
