• Red Hat Releases Tuned 2.27 For Adaptively Tuning Linux To Different Workloads Red Hat engineers this weekend released Tuned 2.27, the newest version of their open-source project to provide a tuning profile delivery mechanism for Linux. • Tuned makes it easier to adjust Linux power and performance characteristics depending upon the hardware and the different workload(s) for your Linux system deployment. • Tuned is a replacement/alternative to Linux’s cpupower and power-profiles-daemon utilities. • Red Hat’s Tuned 2.27 brings CPU partitioning improvements, optimizing TCP settings for high throughput and low latency when running OpenShift, setting the CPU boost option in the performance profiles, adjusting latency for SAP HANA, and other updates. • Those wanting to try Tuned 2.27 for tuning your Linux systems/servers can find the new release via GitHub. • Red Hat’s Tuned 2.27 brings CPU partitioning improvements, optimizing TCP settings for high throughput and low latency when running OpenShift, setting the CPU boost option in the performance profiles, adjusting latency for SAP HANA, and other updates.
Article Summaries:
- Red Hat has released Tuned 2.27, the latest version of its open‑source tuning framework that adjusts Linux power and performance settings for specific workloads. The update adds CPU‑partitioning enhancements, automatically detects dracut hook directories, and includes a systemd workaround. It optimizes TCP parameters for high‑throughput, low‑latency OpenShift deployments, sets CPU boost to “1” in performance profiles, and forces a 70 µs latency setting for SAP HANA instead of using C‑states. Additional changes improve documentation handling, sysctl exclusions, and profile recommendations. The new release is available on GitHub for users to test on Linux servers.
