Here's the /etc/sysctl.conf parameters that I've started with: vm.dirty_writeback_centisecs = 100 vm.dirty_expire_centisecs = 100 vm.pagecache = 1 10 30
Since this server is taking Production traffic, we'll need to what for a window to test this. I'll let you know how it works out. If the two vm.dirty don't correct it I'll take it down to 0 for I believe the CPU's will be able to handle the extra cycles.
