Main tuning – CPU and memory
In the previous section, Figure 11.1 illustrated the different tools that help us collect performance information on the use of system resources.
The tools display system information such as free disk space, CPU temperature, and other essential components, as well as network information such as the system’s IP address and current upload and download rates.
Monitoring the resources of the running system represents one of the many main tasks of a system administrator. The goal of system monitoring is to determine whether the current performance meets the specified technical requirements.

Before changing the CPU and memory usage configuration, let’s take a brief look at the basic monitoring tools included in Fedora Linux.
Overview of monitoring tools
Monitoring tools provide per-process statistics and are based on process structures...
