Git Integration for Jira Cloud Documentation

Known performance limitations

The Cloud version of our application is run on our AWS instances and there are fewer options for configuration compared to a self-hosted instance of Jira/GIJ. This document details some “soft limits” beyond which we’ve noticed some of our customers having performance issues.

Please note that the thresholds below are meant to be guidelines rather than hard limits. In most cases, the limits can be exceeded, but depending on the severity, could lead to degraded performance or even halted operation. In cases where you are having issues due to these limits being exceeded, our support team will do their best to make suggestions for alternative configurations that could help, but we cannot guarantee performance or operation in cases where the limits are being breached.
