Wisdom: 1. You can not tune your way out of a lack of capacity. 2. Computer performance is based upon a three legged stool analogy consisting of a balance of CPU, Memory, and I/O in the proper balance otherwise the stool falls over.

This includes favorite techniques, conventional wisdom and common knowledge so obvious that they risk not being recognized and passed on, eternal truths that keep being rediscovered, etc. Most useful are broad principles rather than specific and maybe-ephemeral how-to or fix-this tips. It will be the usual relatively short article, so brief is best. And please copy replies to me so I don't miss them in list digests.
