Linux network stack tuning

Found a nice blog post that talks about tuning the Linux network stack:

http://blog.packagecloud.io/eng/2016/06/22/monitoring-tuning-linux-networking-stack-receiving-data/

I notice that it doesn't talk about pinning interrupts to the NUMA zone that the NIC is physically connected to (or at least "NUMA" doesn't appear in the post), so it doesn't have *everything*.  :-)

And it also doesn't mention kernel bypass libraries, like OpenOnload.

But it has a lot of stuff in it.
