If this file is very large, GitLab SSH fast lookup can cause the bottleneck to be hit more frequently, thus decreasing performance even further. If you are able to, you may consider disabling [`UsePAM` in your `sshd_config`](https://linux.die.net/man/5/sshd_config) to avoid reading `/var/log/btmp` altogether. |
