Just goes to show how much one should know in our field to make the machine work well for you. For somebody that can understand the article, the stuff is mostly known, but if you don't know it, the article is pretty dense.
It would be nice if someone make a docker image with all the tuning set (except the hardware)
It would have be nicer, if the author has shown what the end result of this optimization looks like, with numbers, comparing against a standard run-of-the-mill nginx setup.
- mayank 9y ago> It would be nice if someone make a docker image with all the tuning set (except the hardware) This degree of optimization is something that really depends on a specific use case and the precise configuration of the entire hardware+software stack, and not a general-purpose best practices list that can be put into a container. The author says as much at the top in the disclaimer: > Please do not cargo-cult them. For the sake of the scientific method, apply them one-by-one, measure their effect, and decide wether they are indeed useful in your environment. Better to take away the profiling and optimization methodologies from the article rather than specific settings.

- TomMarius 9y agoI don't think they meant for production, just testing and toying with it.
- tokenizerrr 9y agoThe entire idea of tuning is that you tune it to your particular workload.
