Hey everyone! I’m excited to share my latest video on isolating and identifying performance issues in Linux systems. 🐧 Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just starting out, these tips will help you tackle these performance bottlenecks.

🔍 In this video, I cover:
1️⃣ CPU: Learn how to use the w command to check load averages and identify CPU issues.
2️⃣ Memory: Discover how the vmstat 1 2 command can reveal memory pressure through si (swap in) and so (swap out) columns.
3️⃣ Network: Use ip -s link to spot errors and dropped packets, helping you pinpoint network problems.
4️⃣ Input/Output (I/O): Find out how to use top to detect I/O issues by looking at the wa (waiting) column.

📽️ This is just the first part of the series! Stay tuned for more in-depth debugging tips in upcoming videos. The video link is in the first comment.

🛠️ I appreciate your support. Happy debugging!
