Synopsis:
Jeremy will provide an overview of how the Performance Engineering
group at Red Hat approaches performance analysis, show specific
examples of testing methods that produced interesting results, and
show how they are able to performance-tune infrastructure in the field
using tools like tuned.

You will leave with a new appreciation for how many knobs and levers
are available in the Linux kernel, and understanding how a practical
approach to performance tuning can have a big impact on every-day
deployments.

Bio:
Jeremy Eder is a Principal Software Engineer and Network Performance
Lead at Red Hat Inc, where he specializes in measurement and analysis
