What TIPTOP Does

$ tpt scan
✓ CPU scheduling: analyzing cgroup settings
✓ Memory: transparent hugepages policy check
✓ I/O: elevator algorithm + queue depth
✓ Network: TCP buffer tuning, offload status
$ tpt tune --profile balanced
✓ Applied 23 kernel parameter optimizations
✓ Estimated throughput gain: +18%

Tuning Profiles

  • High-Performance — maximize throughput & CPU utilization
  • Balanced — optimize for mixed workloads
  • Conservative — prioritize stability & power efficiency
  • Low-Latency — minimize interrupt handling delays
  • Custom — fine-grained per-parameter control

System Areas

  • CPU scheduler tuning — priority, cgroups, affinity
  • Memory management — swappiness, huge pages, reclaim
  • I/O scheduling — elevator, queue depth, read-ahead
  • Network stack — TCP buffers, GRO/GSO, offloading
  • Power management — frequency scaling, idle states
  • Kernel watchdogs — soft-lockup, hung-task detection

Linux Only

TIPTOP is a pure Linux kernel tuner with built-in file recovery. No Windows, no macOS. Single static x86-64 binary. Drop it on Debian, Kali, RHEL, or any Linux distribution and start optimizing.

Linux Performance Optimization

Real evidence-driven tuning. No guesswork. One command, measurable improvement.
