client_output_buffer_limit:
type: list
elements: str
required: false
description: The client output buffer limits can be used to force disconnection of clients that are not reading data from the server fast enough for some reason (a common reason is that a Pub/Sub client can't consume messages as fast as the publisher can produce them). The limit can be set differently for the three different classes of clients, normal, replica and pubsub.
client_query_buffer_limit:
type: str
required: false
description: Client query buffers accumulate new commands. They are limited to a fixed amount by default in order to avoid that a protocol desynchronization (for instance due to a bug in the client) will lead to unbound memory usage in the query buffer. The commented default is 1gb.

proto_max_bulk_len:

hz:
type: int
required: false
description: The server calls an internal function to perform many background tasks, like closing connections of clients in timeout, purging expired keys that are never requested, and so forth. ot all tasks are performed with the same frequency, but the server checks for tasks to perform according to the specified "hz" value. The range is between 1 and 500, however a value over 100 is usually not a good idea. Most users should use the default of 10 and raise this up to 100 only in environments where very low latency is required.
dynamic_hz:
type: bool
required: false
description: Normally it is useful to have an HZ value which is proportional to the number of clients connected. Since the default HZ value by default is conservatively set to 10, the server offers, and enables by default, the ability to use an adaptive HZ value which will temporarily raise when there are many connected clients.
rdb_save_incremental_fsync:
type: bool
required: false
description: When the server saves RDB file, if the following option is enabled the file will be fsync-ed every 4 MB of data generated. This is useful in order to commit the file to the disk more incrementally and avoid big latency spikes. The default is true.
lfu_log_factor:

description: The server's LFU eviction (see maxmemory setting) can be tuned. However it is a good idea to start with the default settings and only change them after investigating how to improve the performances and how the keys LFU change over time, which is possible to inspect via the OBJECT FREQ command. The default lfu-log-factor is 10.
lfu_decay_time:
type: int
required: false
description: The counter decay time is the time, in minutes, that must elapse in order for the key counter to be decremented. The default value for the lfu-decay-time is 1. A special value of 0 means we will never decay the counter.
