# Multi Parameters

Integers in Concrete are encrypted and processed according to a set of cryptographic parameters. By default, multiple of such parameters are selected by Concrete Optimizer. This might not be the best approach for every use case and there is the option to use mono parameters.

When multi parameters are enabled, a different set of parameters are selected for each bit-width in the circuit, which results in:

* Faster execution (generally).
* Slower key generation.
* Larger keys.
* Larger memory usage during execution.

To disable it, you can use `parameter_selection_strategy=fhe.ParameterSelectionStrategy.MONO` configuration option.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.zama.org/concrete/2.4/tutorials/multi_parameters.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
