- This variable is used to set whether to disable automatic retry of explicit transactions. If you set this variable to 1, the transaction does not retry automatically. If there is a conflict, the transaction needs to be retried at the application layer. To decide whether you need to disable automatic retry, see [description of optimistic transactions](transaction-isolation.md#description-of-optimistic-transactions).

## tidb_enable_table_partition

- Scope: SESSION
- Default value: 0
- This variable is used to set whether to enable the `TABLE PARTITION` feature.

## tidb_backoff_lock_fast

- This variable is used to set the priority of executing the `ADD INDEX` operation in the `re-organize` phase.
- You can set the value of this variable to `PRIORITY_LOW`, `PRIORITY_NORMAL` or `PRIORITY_HIGH`.

## Optimizer Hint

On the basis of MySQL’s `Optimizer Hint` Syntax, TiDB adds some proprietary `Hint` syntaxes. When using the `Hint` syntax, the TiDB optimizer will try to use the specific algorithm, which performs better than the default algorithm in some scenarios.
