SharePoint Permissions Affected by 5000 list view threshold

Copper Contributor

SharePoint Online.  I read somewhere where not only is performance affected by exceeding the 5000 list/library view threshold, but also, permissions are as well.  I'm aware of exceeding the number of permissions will be blocked to prevent performance degradation, but are permissions?

You have probably read about the recommendation in the number of unique permissions in a list or document library that is 5000....you can go up to 50000, but as you well mention the performance could be degraded
