##### Custom S3 Region `customs3regions`	Enable to enter a comma-delimited list of custom S3 regions that should be made available when configuring a blob store. If not added or enabled, only the standard AWS regions will be listed as options when creating an S3 blob store. `<br>regions: "us-east"<br>` See Configuring Blob Stores

Repository: Browse Trim	Controls automatic trimming of empty browse nodes (folders) in repository browse trees after component deletion. Trim is always enabled for H2 databases and disabled by default for PostgreSQL due to performance considerations, but can be enabled. Optional batch processing reduces database contention by batching trim operations every 2 seconds or 100 events, which may delay trimming by up to 2 seconds.

##### Scheduler `scheduling.scheduler`	Configures scheduler details. Created automatically on initial startup. See Tasks

This capability was added in Nexus Repository 3.72.0 however it was later removed in the 3.80.0 release to globally set the default configuration of High Availability (HA) deployments. The limit is set to 10 trips to the database. This impacts search performance and can result in empty data sets in some cases.
