You should then be able to browse the adminer database administration GUI at http://localhost:1799/ after entering your DB credentials (found in the `host_vars` or on the server in `{{matrix_synapse_config_dir_path}}/homeserver.yaml` under `database.args`)
⚠️ Be **very careful** with this, there is **no undo** for impromptu DB operations.
## Make Synapse faster
Synapse's presence feature which tracks which users are online and which are offline can use a lot of processing power. You can disable presence by adding `matrix_synapse_use_presence: false` to your `vars.yml` file.
Tuning Synapse's cache factor can help reduce RAM usage. See the upstream documentation for more information on what value to set this to https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse#help-synapse-is-slow-and-eats-all-my-ram-cpu. Use the variable `matrix_synapse_caches_global_factor` to set the cache factor.
