## Fast lookup of authorized SSH keys
The [fast SSH key lookup](../operations/fast_ssh_key_lookup.md) feature can improve
performance of GitLab instances even if they're using block storage.
[Fast SSH key lookup](../operations/fast_ssh_key_lookup.md) is a replacement for
`authorized_keys` (in `/var/opt/gitlab/.ssh`) using the GitLab database.
NFS increases latency, so fast lookup is recommended if `/var/opt/gitlab`
is moved to NFS.
We are investigating the use of
[fast lookup as the default](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/3104).
