    Low Disk Space Warnings: If you receive frequent warnings about low disk space, it could indicate that your hard drive is nearly full, which can lead to performance issues as the operating system ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrashing_(computer_science)

    This condition is referred to as thrashing. Thrashing may occur on a program that randomly accesses huge data structures, as its large working set causes continual page faults that drastically slow down the system. Satisfying page faults may require freeing pages that will soon have to be re-read from disk.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Program_optimization

    As performance is part of the specification of a program – a program that is unusably slow is not fit for purpose: a video game with 60 Hz (frames-per-second) is acceptable, but 6 frames-per-second is unacceptably choppy – performance is a consideration from the start, to ensure that the system is able to deliver sufficient performance, and ...

    On SCSI hard disk drives, the SCSI controller can directly control spin up and spin down of the drives. Some Parallel ATA (PATA) and Serial ATA (SATA) hard disk drives support power-up in standby (PUIS): each drive does not spin up until the controller or system BIOS issues a specific command to do so. This allows the system to be set up to ...

    While available, users could also purchase Steam Machine related hardware. [96] Valve took a flat 30% share of all revenue generated from direct Steam sales and microtransactions [a] until October 2018 when they changed their policy to reduce the cut to 25% once revenue for a game surpasses US$10 million, and further to 20% at US$50 million.

    The disk drives would measure the disk's "health parameters", and the values would be transferred to the operating system and user-space monitoring software. Each disk drive vendor was free to decide which parameters were to be included for monitoring, and what their thresholds should be. The unification was at the protocol level with the host.

  8. File system fragmentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_system_fragmentation

    Thus, fragmentation is an important problem in file system research and design. The containment of fragmentation not only depends on the on-disk format of the file system, but also heavily on its implementation. [9] File system fragmentation has less performance impact upon solid-state drives, as there is no mechanical seek time involved. [10]

    In these cases, editors can certainly make use of these tools to improve the performance they can measure. "Don't worry about performance" refers to site-wide performance, where the purpose of the servers is to support the wiki contents, not the other way around. The purpose of the wiki content is to serve the reader; and performance ...
