# Performance

{% hint style="info" %}
We advise not to run the Terminal in multiple browser tabs simultaneously, as this will degrade performance. Please use the Terminal's internal tab system!
{% endhint %}

The Terminal comes with our recommended performance settings by default. If you want to adjust those yourself, please head to the Performance tab in the Settings menu.

### Buffered Updates

When enabled, this settings will process updates on your orders, positions etc in batches rather than individually. This can give a tremendous performance boost when cancelling / creating large numbers of orders e.g. during a Scale or Swarm. On by default.

### Automatic Refresh Rate

The Terminal will switch between Slow, Medium and Fast automatically when it detects increased market activity. On by default

### Refresh Rate

If you are operating on a slower machine, you can manually adjust the base refresh rate. Fast by default.

### Disable all Refresh Rate Management

By enabling the Refresh Rate Management a performance dial will appear in the header menu. If you want full control or things get *really* heavy you can modify the UI refresh rate quickly and manually by adjusting the dial. Disabled by default.
