# GitLab Workhorse
GitLab Workhorse is a smart reverse proxy for GitLab. It handles
"large" HTTP requests such as file downloads, file uploads, Git
push/pull and Git archive downloads.
Workhorse itself is not a feature, but there are [several features in
GitLab](doc/architecture/gitlab_features.md) that would not work efficiently without Workhorse.
