Since model factories create in-memory objects, because of big memory usages it is not suitable for large seeds.
But you can use Faker for data generation:
use Faker\Generator as Faker;
class PostSeeder extends Seeder
{
public function run(Faker $faker)
{
$users= collect(User::all()->modelKeys());
$data = [];
for ($i = 0; $i < 100000; $i++) {
$data[] = [
'body' => $faker->text,
'image' => $faker->imageUrl(),
'user_id' => $users->random(),
'created_at' => now()->toDateTimeString(),
'updated_at' => now()->toDateTimeString(),
];
}
$chunks = array_chunk($data, 10000);
foreach ($chunks as $chunk) {
Post::insert($chunk);
}
}
}

Personally I would do something like this:
public function run()
{
$videos = factory(Video::class, 10000)->make();
$chunks = $videos->chunk(2000);
$chunks->each(function ($chunk) {
Video::insert($chunk->toArray());
});
}
Generally much faster, regardless of faker usage
