set_system_clock_from_google.sh

Sets system time based on what is reported by google.com. Useful for cases where it is not possible to use the standard ntpdate command. For eample, if a Linux machine is on a network which is only able to reach the internet through an HTTP proxy.

NGINX Tuning For Best Performance

For this configuration you can use web server you like, i decided, because i work mostly with it to use nginx.

Generally, properly configured nginx can handle up to 400K to 500K requests per second (clustered), most what i saw is 50K to 80K (non-clustered) requests per second and 30% CPU load, course, this was 2 x Intel Xeon with HyperThreading enabled, but it can work without problem on slower machines.

You must understand that this config is used in testing environment and not in production so you will need to find a way to implement most of those features best possible for your servers.
