Re: [rules-users] Can Drools supply large Knowledge Base?

Hi Thomas It's a tiny rule for now, but in the future i will append more conditions automatically by machines by analyzing some user logs, the size of the rule file may grow to several GBs and that's what i'm worrying about?

That’s not a big rule, that is a tiny rule. So I’m still not sure what you are actually worrying about and why you think you may have an issue.

Hi Stathis You're probably right, maybe it's a wrong question, i'm new to Drools, so I copy the rule sample from user guide as below to better explain, that's what i need, but the rule will be automatically generated in the future.. package com.company.license rule "Is of valid age" when     $a : Applicant( age < 18 ) then     $a.setValid( false ); end So in the future the rule may include more and more conditions like below: rule "Is of valid age2" when     $a : Applicant( age > 18 and age < 20 ) then ... end So it may grow to be a very large rule(?), and this is actually my question: how to handle this big rule?
