Hi @Dharanish !

First, your Weaviate versions are fairly outdated.

We strongely recommend migrating to newer version and specially using the new python v4 client, as it leverages a GRPC connection and will remove some of the overheads of a json object.

This limit will depend on your object size (number of properties) and the contents.

Do you see any outstanding log in server logs?
