the following two settings on my K12LTSP 4.2EL box to see if they would
indeed speed up response time for desktop apps.
/sbin/sysctl -w vm.swappiness=1 (default is 60)
/sbin/sysctl -w vm.vfs_cache_pressure=50 (default is 100)
These are, as you might've guessed from the "vm" in the name, virtual
memory settings for Linux (the kernel).

Can anyone think of any benefit to making these same changes in
/opt/ltsp/i386/etc/sysctl.conf? I assume not since everything is basically running in RAM.

I can think of one. If you're running apps locally on your thin
client, and you have NFSSWAP turned on, then I could see it being a
benefit. Otherwise, no. Anyone?<br>
