mongo loading takes enormous memory

[Nazeer]

Hi,

I am trying to load huge amount of data.
From CSV file to Mongodb. it has about 60 Million records in CSV file

I have used mongoimport functionloty.

To my Surprise it using huge amount of memory.

PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
44173 xxx 20 0 140g 67g 67g S 130.6 6.7 32:48.06 mongod

Is there any other method to load such a huge data that will consume
less memory.


Thanks
Naz

This is probably normal and fine.
