Hi,
See the option "Generate variants automatically"
www.hikashop.com/support/support/documen...g.html#main_advanced
If you have characteristics with a lot of values ; you will generate a lot of variants and it will require a bigger server to handle such quantity of data.
You can see to deactivate the option and delete the unwanted variants.
