-# Sidekiq Job throttling
-
-> Note: Introduced with GitLab 8.14
-
-When your GitLab installation needs to handle tens of thousands of background
-jobs, it can be convenient to throttle queues that do not need to be executed
-immediately, e.g. long running jobs like Pipelines, thus allowing jobs that do
-need to be executed immediately to have access to more resources.
-
-In order to accomplish this, you can limit the amount of workers that certain
-slow running queues can have available. 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.
-
-![Sidekiq Job Throttling](img/sidekiq_job_throttling.png)
-
-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. \ No newline at end of file
