# MaxDatastoreConnections

The maximum number of connections to open to the database that stores asynchronous action queues. In most cases the default value of one connection is sufficient.

Increasing the number of connections allows more threads to communicate with the database concurrently. This can improve performance but places a greater load on the database.

TIP: Databases often limit the number of open connections for a given user or from a given host.
