Tuning your storage component

You can change the settings in your installation to improve performance. Different values than the default settings may be better for your requirements and data characteristics.

About this task

To improve the performance of your installation:

1. The maximum file size is limited by your disk space.
2. Use the storage -provision command to set the buffer size to optimize your throughput. The default is 32 kb but you may find that a larger or smaller buffer provides better performance.
3. Increase the size of ulimit -n to increase the number of concurrent sessions allowed. The value of ulimit -n must be large enough for your expected concurrent sessions, but setting it too high can degrade performance.
