# Kernel Tuning for MinIO Production Deployment on Linux Servers [](https://slack.min.io) [](https://hub.docker.com/r/minio/minio/)
|
||
|
||
List of kernel tuning recommendations for MinIO server deployments, a copy of this [script](https://github.com/minio/minio/blob/master/docs/deployment/kernel-tuning/sysctl.sh) is available here that can be applied on the servers.
|
||
|
||
> NOTE: These are common recommendations on any Linux servers, users must be careful on any premature optimization.
|
||
> These settings are not mandatory, these settings do not fix any hardware issues and should not be considered as an
|
||
> alternative to boost performance to mask underlying hardware problems. Under all circumstances it is recommended
|
||
> to perform this tuning only after performing benchmarks for the hardware with expected baseline results.
