TABLE 5–2 Tuning 64–bit Systems for Performance Benchmarking
Parameter Scope Default Value Tuned Value Comments
rlim_fd_max /etc/system 65536 260000 Process open le descriptors limit;
should account for the expected load
(for the associated sockets, les, pipes
if any).
hires_tick /etc/system 1
sq_max_size /etc/system 2 0 Controls streams driver queue size;
setting to 0 makes it innite so the
performance runs won’t be hit by lack
of buer space. Set on clients too.
Note that setting sq_max_size to 0
might not be optimal for production
systems with high network trac.
