Optimization Links please Was: Guide to optimize Ubuntu?

[Phillip Sc. Boegh]

Hi guide-makers

I am working on an optimation guide and rescue-guide for some mounths now*
to be uploaded (in march at www.scientific.dk - now only language
optimizations).
What I need for this are some precise and reliable how-to & descriptions like
yours:
>> http://www.linuxdevcenter.com/pub/a/linux/2000/06/29/hdparm.html?page=1

Please use links and possible corrections to these. I think it is bedder
than the many spread advices as documentation then is included. For loose
speedups optimization tips you can find at the november issue of
LinuxFormat.

Best regards

Phillip
