Performance Tuning

This page covers practical tuning strategies for high-throughput and low-latency workloads.

Primary tuning levers

• PollIntervalSeconds
• BatchSize
• MaxConcurrentRuns
• LeaseDurationSeconds
• RetryDelay / RetryMaxDelay / retry jitter

Throughput tuning sequence

• Increase MaxConcurrentRuns in small steps.
• Increase BatchSize after confirming downstream capacity.
• Keep poll jitter enabled for multi-worker clusters.

Latency tuning sequence

• Lower poll interval carefully.
• Balance lower poll interval with database load.
• Avoid synchronized polling by keeping jitter enabled.

Provider considerations

• Validate tuning with your real provider and dataset.
• Measure claim, success, retry, and failure trends before/after each change.
• Tune one dimension at a time to keep causal analysis clear.
