# mw-pfeddersheim-workstation Performance Tuning
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
This document tracks optimization decisions, system tuning parameters, and cleanup routines implemented for the workstation to ensure maximum resource efficiency and stability.
|
|
|
|
## Current System State (2026-02-27)
|
|
- **CPU**: AMD/Intel (High core count assumed from load distribution)
|
|
- **RAM**: 64GB
|
|
- **Storage**: NVMe (77% usage detected)
|
|
- **OS**: CachyOS/Arch Linux
|
|
|
|
## Optimization Strategies
|
|
|
|
### 1. Kernel Parameter Tuning (Ansible)
|
|
- **vm.swappiness**: Set to `10` to prefer RAM over swap on the 64GB machine.
|
|
- **fs.inotify.max_user_watches**: Increase to `524288` for IDEs and build tools.
|
|
- **vm.vfs_cache_pressure**: Set to `50` to improve filesystem cache retention.
|
|
|
|
### 2. Storage & Filesystem Cleanup
|
|
- **Docker**: Automated pruning of unused images and volumes via `scripts/maintenance.sh`.
|
|
- **Journald**: Vacuuming logs older than 7 days or exceeding 500MB.
|
|
- **Package Manager**: Maintaining only the last 2 versions of packages in the cache.
|
|
|
|
### 3. Service Optimization
|
|
- **Ananicy**: (Optional) Use Ananicy-cpp for automatic process prioritizing (CachyOS default usually).
