Full Discussion: How do I boost the Linux performace
Operating Systems Linux How do I boost the Linux performace Post 302254035 by bakunin on Monday 3rd of November 2008 12:01:53 PM

issue the following command:

Code:
vmstat 10 > /some/file

and let it run for some time - 10 minutes or so - while you are working normally. Then post the content of the file here to discuss things further.

It is vital in any tuning project not to jump to any conclusions too fast. First gather the data, then arrange it, only then interpret it. Only when you know what the bottleneck on your system is it makes sense to talk about tuning measures.

"Increase RAM" may in most cases help, because most machines can do better with more RAM and even if it does not help it will not hurt either. But this is like "get yourself more money" as an advice to any problem: sure, it won't hurt, but it might not be a cure for every problem either.

I hope this helps.
