Limit	Note
Code length	The maximum code length accepted by a Reactor is 50K chars.
Payload Size	The maximum payload size to invoke a Reactor is 5 MB. Please reach out if your use case requires more than that.
Concurrency	The default hot concurrency is set to 1 by default, this will fan out and cold start additional Reactors if multiple requests happen concurrently. If you need additional hot concurrency, please reach out.
Synchronous Timeout	Synchronous Reactor Invoke calls will timeout after 30s.
