### Overview
<Warning>
This Limits applies for the **Activepieces Cloud**, and can be configured via environment variables for self-hosted instances.
</Warning>
### Flow Limits
- **Execution Time**: Each flow has a maximum execution time of **600 seconds (10 minutes)**. Flows exceeding this limit will be marked as a timeout.
- **Memory Usage**: During execution, a flow should not use more than **128 MB of RAM**.
<Tip>
**Friendly Tip #1:** Flow run in a paused state, such as Wait for Approval or Delay, do not count toward the 600 seconds.
</Tip>
<Tip>
**Friendly Tip #2:** The execution time limit can be worked around by splitting the flows into multiple ones, such as by having one flow call another flow using a webhook, or by having each flow process a small batch of items.
</Tip>
### File Storage Limits

The files from actions or triggers are stored in the database / S3 to support retries from certain steps.
</Info>
- **Maximum File Size**: 10 MB
