Extreme ram usage

[Christomou]

Hi there.

I am using drizzle graphql for my application. My drizzle schema is getting pretty complex as the app grows, but nothing out of the ordinary.

When I am generating the graphql schema using drizzle, the ram consumption sky rockets, and crashes the app because it eats up all the allocated ram (I have allocated 12 GB!).

I geuss this is because of all the nested relations that is generated for each model in the database.

Maybe there is an obvious quick fix for this? Otherwise it would be nice with a solution. What about a setting for buildSchema, where you can declare how deeply nested the relations in the generated schema should go?

Okay, never mind, there actually is this kind of setting in the buildSchema function. The second parameter is a config parameter with the following type

type BuildSchemaConfig = { /** * Determines whether generated mutations will be passed to returned schema. * * Set value tofalseto omit mutations from returned schema. * * Flag is treated as if set totrueby default. */ mutations?: boolean; /** * Limits depth of generated relation fields on queries. * * Expects non-negative integer or undefined. * * Set value toundefinedto not limit relation depth. * * Set value to0to omit relations altogether. * * Value is treated as if set toundefinedby default. */ relationsDepthLimit?: number; };

Maybe this should be added to the documentation somewhere? I couldn't find it here at least https://orm.drizzle.team/docs/graphql
