Can somebody give me a "feeling" about growing of the database when 4images is installed in the same db ?
Like 100 picture about xyz MB or 500 pictures about abc MB

My opinion is that having both in one db should explode the memory usage.

I have to upgrade a domain with actual 250MB vB2 database and about 1.000 pictures in a phpgallery to a vB3 with 4images.

Talking about 4images

- 4images save pictures as files in data folder, not in database.
How much space it takes, depends on your image files. If you have big files (images), it takes more, if you have small files, it takes less.

Says I have 9500 pictures, taking about 1.4 Gb of webspace (images + thumbnails) and 3.8Mb of database.

Good luck

PS:
- memory, webspace, and database are three different things.
- domain and website are different too
