A useful tool to use is sysv-rc-conf*Ubuntu users can get this by typing apt-get install sysv-rc-confThis allows you to remove unused services, and will vastly improve your boot time, and release precious RAM to the user.
Overall a comprehensive page for Linux operating system tuning. Nothing specific to applications that may run on Linux, though. If you are into short and sweet tuning tips on Linux, aix, Windows, and Solaris for cpu, memory, network, and disk io, I recommend this site: <a class="user" href="http://www.performancewiki.com">http://www.performancewiki.com</a>

Hmm, not that impressive of an article. Seems to repeat a fair number of "old wives tail", that tend to have minimal impact on performance.One day, when I'm bored, I'm going to update <a class="user" href="http://people.redhat.com/alikins/system_tuning.html">http://people.redhat.com/alikins/system_tuning.html</a> to be relevant again. But I rarely have to deal with those sort of issues anymore, so I'm not well versed in the area. Maybe I should just make it into a wiki, especially now the old linuxperf.linux.nl seems to have gone away. That approach worked a bit with <a class="user" href="http://www.linuxtroubleshooting.com">http://www.linuxtroubleshooting.com</a> which is similar.
