Is there a number of records limit on the device?

I have been looking for something to support a large car show's attendee registration (1,000 cars). We are doing this with 5 devices so they should average 200 per records device before we sync at the end of the day. Will the app handle 250 records without any performance hits? At the end of the day, should I sync each one at a time or just do them all at once? Is there a way to automate a test to create my records? This looks like the solution I am looking for just want to make sure it will not suffer from the amount of records. Thanks.

Assuming you're not collecting huge images, this should be OK. Syncing all
at once is fine -- they are all processed sequentially.

The one issue I have heard is that the list of forms may be incomplete once
you get above 100's of items. In my testing (of several 100), I did not see
that.

the reported problem was a display issue -- it did not affect what the
software knew about the forms, it just seemed to fail to render that list
accurately.

Jeff,

It's probably fine to hit the server with all the 1000 records at
once, but I know of at least one project that had an issue with
sending tens of thousands of records (with images) at once. If you
have cell or WiFi at the site and you want to be overly cautious, you
can turn on auto-send so the data comes in as it's finalized on the
device.
