Tweaking The Kernel

Tweaking The Kernel

[war]

Does anyone have a web page or doc which explains how to tweak all of
the /proc/sys settings?
Like /proc/sys/vm/ settingsm etc?

It seems that powetweak (powertweak.sourceforge.net) has descriptions
for many of this tunable parameters. Some others are documented under
/usr/src/linux/kernel/Documentation, some others seem not to be
documented at all, but maybe a look at the sources would be helpful.
