    Linux swappiness - how do you set optimal value?

    A note on that, the 3.5 patch mentioned was backported to RHEL6's 2.6 kernel, so it applies there too, as mentioned in the Percona article.

    Linux swappiness - how do you set optimal value?

    I much prefer this StackExchange topic over the Ubuntu topic: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/88693/why-is-swappiness-set-to-60-by-default. The Ubuntu topic misrepresents how swapping works.  It doesn't work simply by amount of RAM consumed; the LRU algorithm makes it more nuanced than...

    What one should know if planning to start public mail service

    This times 1000.  You came here for advice from people ostensibly more knowledgeable than you, but you refuse to accept any of it.  I can't figure out why you posted here, since you seem to know everything already.

    Hmmm, why did my IPv6 stop working recently? Oh, because I was only asking for a /64 from their rout

    Only a /60?  How quaint :P .  My ISP gives out /56, but that is already passé.  I don't understand why, but everyone now thinks a /48 should be the smallest delegation.  My lame router only knows how to handle a /64, so I'm missing out on all those extra addresses for now anyways :(.  Not that I...

    Your thoughts on using nginx and apache together?

    I've been running it with great success on a website that gets ~10k hits per day.  We were running regular Apache prefork, but now we run nginx as a reverse proxy in front of Apache prefork.  We can't do away with Apache entirely or change its multi-processing module because the site runs on...

    nginx - File by file redirection with reverse proxy

    You should make sure you don't have a less specific location that matches earlier in the config.  You could also try converting your location to an exact match, like below, since that has higher priority. location = /oldurl.asp {

    How can we make the Daily Server Deals website a better experience for you?

    I used to use it frequently, but I haven't seen a new offer on there in a long time, just a bunch of reruns.  The site has a lot of potential, but it needs fresh, exciting content.  I don't want to see everyday prices on everyday products; I want to see a special deal or a new product/location...

    Malaysia Airlines 777 crash - round two

    777 as in Boeing 777.  The model of airplane, not the flight designation.  This is the second Boeing 777 airplane of Malaysia Airlines to crash in the recent past.

    Solution to monitor data transfer usage on dedicated servers?

    Yep, all of my boxes get vnstat right away.  Don't forget to check that the daemon or the cron job is set to run or it won't collect stats.

    How to secure your wordpress blogs

    I liked it when I used it for a little while, but it doesn't work with IPv6.  If you have AAAA records the scanning service will use them, but it doesn't actually work with IPv6 so everything stops functioning.  It was great otherwise.

    Was BlueVM's website down?

    Wow.  This thread really has gone full retard.  UYou might want to ask your kindergarten teacher how to spell uyou, when to use the word to and when to use the word too, and what the difference between a comma and an apostrophe is.
