No, unfortunately, we have no data as it's quite new.

An easy answer would be: it scales like postgresql scales. It uses the
read_group method (with a bit of improvements)

Just tested on our own instance, an analysis view that covers 400k records
is computed in 50ms. (with an index, 200ms when grouping on a non indexed
field)

Do you know if Pentaho or Spago is faster?

i.e. – we have account.move.line table with 3 mln records.

Based a very simple test on our leads, I would say less than 1 second for a
report that covers all records on a 3 millions records table.

Then, all operations (drill up-down, slice, switch views, pivot, ...) are
optimized to request only the changes to the server. So, manipulation of
the cube is quite fast.

No, it will be in seconds rather than minutes, unless you have billions of
records.

Would be great if someone can download the branch and benchmark. It should
not be very difficult to test.
