Connection: If the property is set at the connection, then the property value is applicable for all dataset build and cube build process and semantic model process jobs.
Semantic model: If the property is set on a semantic model, then the value will override the connection level value for that semantic model's process job.
NOTE: If the property is set on a dataset and a dataset is builtprocessed, then the value will override the connection level value for that dataset build process job.
Comes into effect:
This property comes into effect in all the semantic model process jobs. The value of the property can be changed at any time and will be respected in the next buildprocess.
Dependencies and related properties:
...
The default value of the property should work fine for most scenarios. If the cube build semantic model process jobs fail due to memory-related failures, then the job memory can be increased using this property.
