Performance Limits and SharePoint Ludicrous Mode

Learn about performance limits in SharePoint and Ludicrous Mode.

Microsoft's Graph API has some of the highest rate limiting for API calls in the market. This can make moving data to SharePoint slower and more nuanced than other platforms. Outside of Ludicrous Mode, you can normally expect to move between 200-500GB per day.

When migrating into SharePoint, Ludicrous Mode can provide a significant performance improvement. Ludicrous Mode uses the SharePoint migration-api, a less well-known and under-documented batch ingestion API for moving large volumes of data into SharePoint without hitting the limitations of the official graph API.

Enabling Ludicrous Mode

Ludicrous mode can be enabled at the project level and provides a significant performance improvement for migrations with a large number of small files destined for SharePoint or OneDrive.

Before enabling Ludicrous mode check:

  • "Always use deltas" is enabled on the project

  • You are not running any current transfers

Currently, Ludicrous Mode is in beta. We recommend chatting with support before enabling it.
