Hey guys, I have been playing around trying to get the performance up a bit. My environment is just a hobby environment and I only have a few 3plus terminals I have purchased on ebay.
I am running SRS on Oracle Linux 6.3 (for now), in a VMware ESXi 5.5 VM, on a Dell C6100. It's hard to gauge which performance tuning options made the most difference, but so far, these are the things I have done: - nohz=off in boot loader kernel line - does this even do anything in OL6.3 default kernel? - vmxnet3 virtual network interface, large receive offload disabled - ethernet0.coalescingScheme=disabled in .vmx file - disabled iptables - net.ipv4.tcp_low_latency=1 - VMware "latency sensitivity" setting to "medium" - Reserve all guest memory It seems that the Linux environment is now very snappy on the terminal compared to when I first set it up. Unfortunately, it's hard to benchmark. Full large screen (2048x1080) redraws are still a little slower than I'd like... I noticed the OSD menu on the terminal has an option for an MTU setting... if I set up another network/vlan for Jumbo frames, do you guys reckon that it would help with the full screen redraws (assuming proper end to end configuration) I welcome any other thoughts you guys have
