# access check cache Server Configuration Options
[!INCLUDE[appliesto-ss-xxxx-xxxx-xxx-md](../../includes/appliesto-ss-xxxx-xxxx-xxx-md.md)]

  When database objects are accessed by [!INCLUDE[ssNoVersion](../../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)], the access check is cached in an internal structure called the **access check result cache**. The **access check cache quota** and **access check cache bucket count** options control the number of entries and number of hash buckets used for **access check result cache**. In rare circumstances, performance can be improved by changing these options.  
  
 The default values of 0 indicates that [!INCLUDE[ssNoVersion](../../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)] is managing these options. Microsoft recommends only changing these options when directed by Microsoft Customer Support Services.
