access check cache quota

Type: Advanced Option

Default Value: 0

In conjunction with access check cache bucket count option, when SQL server accesses any database object, the access check is cached in an internal structure named access check result cache. The access check cache bucket count option, along with the access check cache quota option, controls the number of entries and number of hash buckets used for access check result cache.

Possible performance gains can be made by changing these options (in rare circumstances). But, in general, you should leave this one alone also.

The following is an example of this option:

exec sp_configure 'access check cache quota', 0goRECONFIGUREGo
