Certain configuration directives in Fluent Bit refer to unit sizes such as when defining the size of a buffer or specific limits, we can find these in plugins like [Tail Input](https://github.com/fluent/fluent-bit-docs/tree/5f926fd1330690179b8c1edab90d672699599ec7/administration/input/tail.md), [Forward Input](https://github.com/fluent/fluent-bit-docs/tree/5f926fd1330690179b8c1edab90d672699599ec7/administration/input/forward.md) or in generic properties like [Mem\_Buf\_Limit](https://github.com/fluent/fluent-bit-docs/tree/5f926fd1330690179b8c1edab90d672699599ec7/administration/configuring-fluent-bit/backpressure.md).
