Hello,

I am interested in what possible tweeks there are to the kernel and files systems to optimize things for 1gbps speeds (ssd) and 200+ mbps on sata II (Raid 0).

Possibly TCP Stacks? What changes to the filesystem would improve speeds?

I am currently running

cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.32-5-686-bigmem (Debian 2.6.32-38) (gcc version 4.3.5 (Debian 4.3.5-4 ) ) #1 SMP Mon Oct 3 05:03:32 UTC 2011​
I plan on running boxes like rtorrent+rutorrent+nginx with curl+c-ares. The main goal here is speed and stability...duh tongue.gif I just find when constantly dealing with very close to maxed out Disk IO every advantage you can get is best. I haven't dove into tweeking a kernel in this way before so it should be fun and any deatiled info would be appreciated!
