Posted by jameswangcnbj:

My current machine configuration is 8core16GB, 3node
After testing 400 million data imports, I found that the query is very slow. I am not sure whether the number of 3nodes currently used meets the requirements, or whether I use 6nodes, and then enable sharding. Could anyone give me some guidance?

Hi @jameswangcnbj, thanks for reaching out to us. I would like to ask to you few things before suggesting anything:

Hey @jameswangcnbj, Thanks for above information. Are you running all 3 nodes on same machine? How much queries are you serving when CPU/RAM usage are as above.
As per above information query might be slow. Please tell us the type of query you are trying to run. Also expected and actual latency.

@jameswangcnbj, if machines used for all alpha are different, this should be good enough. Please tell us the type of queries you are running. As part for query response, you can also check which part of query processing is consuming most time using debug param(https://dgraph.io/docs/query-language/#debug)
