Hi, We do not specifically tune the OS parameters. Doing so requires a lot of knowledge on the application,OS, and platform. We love to hear experiences with other file systems. regards, Martin On 5/27/12 1:38 PM, Majid Azimi wrote:

Hi guys,

As MonetDB does rely on OS features to be tuned, Which settings should we optimize on OS specially on Linux?

1. Tuning network a. using jumbo b. socket buffer space c. TCP setting 2. Tuning VM a. huge page b. swappiness 3. Tuning File system a. which file system? ext3? ext4? XFS? b. using large blocks

if database is almost read only does using ext2 make any benefit?
