+# Compact
+
+This document will walk you through the concept of Compact.
+
+1. Start or stop compact with the `UPDATE CONFIG disable_auto_compactions=false/true` command. This method calls the default RocksDB compact. You can use it to merge sst files in small scale during data writing to ensure the read speed in a short time. This kind of compact is usually performed in the day time.
+2. Start compact with the `SUBMIT JOB COMPACT` command. This method calls the customized compact of **Nebula Graph**. You can use it to perform large scale background operations such as sst files merging in large scale or TTL. This kind of compact is usually performed after midnight.
+
+In addition, you can modify the number of threads in both methods by the following command. You can decrease the threads during daytime and increase it at night.
+
+```ngql
+nebula> UPDATE CONFIGS storage:rocksdb_db_options  = \
+        { max_subcompactions = 4, max_background_jobs = 4};
+```
