I am pretty much a beginner at resource tuning. In fact, after googling for sources that describe how to tune kernel parameters, the postgresql documents remains the best documents I've found so far. http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/interactive/kernel-resources.html
I would be interested if anyone else on the list knows of any resources or books that have an in depth discussion on *generalized* methods or strategies to tune kernel parameters to maximized usage of system resources and at the same time allow for harmonious sharing between various programs/services. Hopefully there is something that describes how to configure a server's parameters beyond simple "rules of thumb." Regards, Richard Broersma Jr. -- [email protected] mailing list
