Please help me tune Linux for bulk.fefe.de/scalability/

Hi!

Several people have asked me to re-run my benchmarks after the kernels have been properly tuned.

To ensure a fair test, I will ask each kernel team to send me a list of things to do to a stock kernel to optimize it for optimal performance on my benchmarks.

Please also tell me if you have suggestions for other benchmarks that say something about the scalability of an operating system, that I could (and should) include in my benchmark suite.
