# Tuning Geo **(PREMIUM SELF)**

You can limit the number of concurrent operations the sites can run
2021-06-18 15:10:16 +00:00
in the background.

## Changing the sync/verification concurrency values
2019-05-05 16:08:21 +00:00
2021-06-18 15:10:16 +00:00
On the **primary** site:
2019-05-05 16:08:21 +00:00
2021-08-26 00:09:31 +00:00
1. On the top bar, select **Menu > Admin** .
2022-05-20 09:09:15 +00:00
1. On the left sidebar, select **Geo > Sites** .
1. Select **Edit** of the secondary site you want to tune.
2021-06-18 15:10:16 +00:00
1. Under **Tuning settings** , there are several variables that can be tuned to
improve the performance of Geo:
- Repository synchronization concurrency limit
- File synchronization concurrency limit
- Container repositories synchronization concurrency limit
- Verification concurrency limit
2022-06-14 15:08:43 +00:00
Increasing the concurrency values increases the number of jobs that are scheduled.
2019-05-05 16:08:21 +00:00
However, this may not lead to more downloads in parallel unless the number of
2021-06-18 15:10:16 +00:00
available Sidekiq threads is also increased. For example, if repository synchronization
concurrency is increased from 25 to 50, you may also want to increase the number
2019-05-05 16:08:21 +00:00
of Sidekiq threads from 25 to 50. See the
2022-08-12 00:09:35 +00:00
[Sidekiq concurrency documentation ](../../sidekiq/extra_sidekiq_processes.md#number-of-threads )
2019-05-05 16:08:21 +00:00
for more details.
