		<title><![CDATA[Optimizing AIX 5L performance: Tuning your memory settings, Part 1]]></title> 
		<description><![CDATA[This three-part series on memory tuning dives right into tuning parameters,
      focusing on the many challenges and the various best practices of optimizing memory
      performance, and it also discusses some improvements in AIX(R) Version 5.3. While
      memory tuning might be more difficult to implement than Central Processing Unit
      (CPU) tuning, it certainly is no less important. You can do more to tune memory on
      an AIX server than on any other subsystem. Changing some memory parameters on your
      system can increase performance dramatically, particularly when these parameters are
      not optimized for the environment which you are running. Part 1 of this series
      provides an overview of memory on AIX, including a discussion of virtual memory and
      the Virtual Memory Manager (VMM).]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Use ps, sar, svmon, and vmstat to monitor memory usage and analyze the
      results. This three-part series focuses on the various aspects of memory management
      and tuning on IBM System p(TM) servers running AIX(R). Part 1 provided an overview
      of memory on AIX, including a discussion of virtual memory and the Virtual Memory
      Manager (VMM). It also drilled down into the tuning parameters and outlined recent
      improvements in AIX Version 5.3 with respect to memory management. Part 2 focuses on
      the detail of actual memory subsystem monitoring and discusses how to analyze the
      results. Part 3 deals specifically on swap space and how best to tune your VMM
      settings to provide for optimum swap space configuration and performance. Throughout
      this series, I&apos;ll also cover some of the best practices of memory performance tuning
      and monitoring.]]></description>
