### How to tune these parameters
- `HASURA_GRAPHQL_CACHE_MAX_ENTRY_TTL` - TTL is the only automatic way of invalidating cache entries in Hasura. Ideally,
you would like to keep the TTL closer to the frequency of your data updates. In some use-cases, if you want to cache
for large amounts of time (in the order of 10s of hours), you may set the max TTL to that, and have some way of
using the [cache clear APIs](/caching/caching-config.mdx/#clearing-items-from-the-cache) to invalidate the cache
when you update your data.
- `HASURA_GRAPHQL_CACHE_MAX_ENTRY_SIZE` - The default response size for a single cache entry is 1000MB. If you want to
cache responses larger than 1000MB, configure this parameter accordingly.
- `HASURA_GRAPHQL_CACHE_BUCKET_RATE` - The default bucket recharge rate is 10MB per second. Set this value to the total
or cumulative response sizes across all your data sources during peak traffic. By setting this parameter
appropriately, you guard your data sources, as well as the cache itself, from being overloaded by the caching
mechanism. Changing this parameter is probably mainly important for non-standard workloads, in which case you can
reach out to Hasura Support.
- `HASURA_GRAPHQL_CACHE_BUCKET_SIZE` - Maximum size of the cache store. If your cache store exceeds this size, new items
cannot be stored. So you should tune this such that at peak traffic, given your configured max entry size and TTL, you
should have ample space to store all the items.
