Many dimensions with a time summary
A time summary on a line item with more than five dimensions stores totals for every quarter, year and total of every combination.
What MaxCheck detects
A line item with more than 5 dimensions, time among them, and a time summary other than None.
Why it hurts
Time totals are stored for every quarter, year and total of every combination, on top of an already large line item.
Example
Taken from the rule's own test cases: formulas it must flag, and formulas it must not.
