Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by tracing where Overleaf's upload throttling is configured in the self-hosted toolkit and determine whether the timeout is exposed as a setting; done means documenting or implementing a supported way to customize it and verifying the throttling behavior.

Description

I am moving several projects to my self-hosted instance. Is it possible to tweak the throttling that Overleaf does when a user uploads a lot of files? I fail to see the point on having such aggressive timeouts when I'm hosting an instance for a small-scale team.
