This is what we call Sidekiq Job -Throttling. Depending on your infrastructure, you might have different slow -running queues, which is why you can choose which queues you want to throttle -and by how much you want to throttle them. - -These settings are available in the Application Settings of your GitLab -installation. - - - -The throttle factor determines the maximum number of workers a queue can run on. -This value gets multiplied by `:concurrency` value set in the Sidekiq settings -and rounded up to the closest full integer. - -So, for example, you set the `:concurrency` to 25 and the `Throttling factor` to -0.1, the maximum workers assigned to the selected queues would be 3. - -```ruby -queue_limit = (factor * Sidekiq.options[:concurrency]).ceil -``` - -After enabling the job throttling, you will need to restart your GitLab -instance, in order for the changes to take effect.
