Feedback for "Best practices for CouchDB performance on linux systems"

Hi guys!

I'd love to get your feedback on my "Best practices for CouchDB performance
on linux systems" document.

https://github.com/assafmo/couchdb-linux-performance

It took me a lot of time and headaches over the last couple of months,
but with these little tweaks I am getting huge performance boost in
multiple production setups (2.0, 1.5 and 1.6).

I'd love to improve this document with your help.

Cheers!

I'd be happy to contribute, unfortunately I don't have at the moment any
benchmarks/measurements that I can share.
My goal here is to hear about other people good or bad experience with
Linux tuning for CouchDB.

I agreed with you, but you may have some sort of RAID configured and don't
want the filesystem to get in your way.
Additionally, CouchDB's append-only files can be helpful with sleeping
better at night. ;)

I worry about turning off the ext4 journal. This is speed at the
expense of data integrity.

Hi aa mm

This is interesting -- lots to digest! It would make either or both of a
great addition to our documentation, or alternatively a drive-by guest
post on blog.couchdb.org if you have some measurements to attach to it.
I'm happy to help you out in contributing these back to the project if
you want to.

Thanks for sharing!

A+
Dave
