Sir, does that mean, that i should not use .txt files, which are larger than RAM? 
For example 64gb ram = ~58-60GB txt max? 

Or you just meant by saying that, that i need fast SSD, to work smooth with rig of 6 GPU's , so GPU's perfomance would not outperform Disk perfomance ?

You need a fast M2 drive and plenty of cache space for the dictionary. For example, on my M2 disk and i7-10700K 32GB RAM dictionary cache lasts 500GB takes about 40 minutes
