Bash script for optimizing performance and hardening Linux kernel by adjusting the kernel parameters. It is self-explained and not supposed to be a one-thing-fit-all script. You should see the script for yourself and adjust the values for your need. Use it with caution.
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/djanedu/kernel_tuning/master/kernel_tuning_centos.sh
chmod +x ./kernel_tuning_centos.sh
./kernel_tuning_centos.sh
mv ./kernel_tuning_centos.sh /opt/
vim /etc/rc.local
# Add the following line:
/opt/kernel_tuning_centos.shwget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/djanedu/kernel_tuning/master/kernel_tuning_ubuntu.sh
chmod +x ./kernel_tuning_ubuntu.sh
./kernel_tuning_ubuntu.sh
