The Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 I/O Tuning Guide presents the basic principles of performance analysis and tuning tuning for the I/O subsystem. This document also provides techniques for troubleshooting performance issues for the I/O subsystem.
This document explains how to effectively manage power consumption on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 systems. It discusses different techniques that lower power consumption (for both server and laptop), and how each technique affects the overall performance of your system.
This whitepaper provides users with useful insight in understanding, tuning and monitoring virtual memory in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.
I anatomize a successful free-software project, fetchmail, that was run as a deliberate test of some surprising theories about software engineering suggested by the history of Linux. I discuss these theories in terms of two fundamentally different development styles, the "cathedral" model of most of the commercial world versus the "bazaar" model of the Linux world. I show that these models derive from opposing assumptions about the nature of the software-debugging task. I then make a sustained argument from the Linux experience for the proposition that "Given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow", suggest productive analogies with other self-correcting systems of selfish agents, and conclude with some exploration of the implications of this insight for the future of software.
