**Your software**  
My Mautic version is: 5  
My PHP version is: 8.3.23  
My Database type and version is: MySQL - 8.0.40

**Your problem**  
My problem is: I’ve setup a campaign which to send text messages. I’ve 13k contacts enrolled in the campaign but the speed of sending message is very low it is sending 100 messages in about 30 minutes. I checked we do not have any cron job or limit set. We’ve recently updated mautic to version 5. It was working fine earlier without any additional cron job. What should be reason of it ?  
These are the cron job setup currently
