# Introduced limit to GraphQL query complexity

[date: 2019-04-18T00:00:00.000+02:00]

To give a more predictable and consistent timing in our GraphQL responses we had to introduce a limit in the query complexity.

To each field required we attach a weight of 1. To fields that need additional queries under the hood, like links, rich\_text fields and uploads we attach a weigth of 10.

We have currently limited the complexity to 550, which should be enough for most cases, but if you have any specific concern [support@datocms.com](mailto:support@datocms.com) is happy to help.
