Could you tell me each and every hardware parameters and OS parameters the

I need the complete list of all the required parameters and how to extract
them on Linux through system calls and files.
Please it will be highly great full of you to do so.
Thank you and regards.
This is not even possible given the variety of hardware, OS variants,
work-loads, database sizes, etc. The answer is really “all of them.” Those
who specialize in tuning constantly run test cases to tease out clues to
performance tuning and even they most likely couldn’t answer this.
The closest you are likely to come is to read and reread "PostgreSQL High
Performance" which is an invaluable resource.
The ebook edition is on sale for $5.00 which is a STEAL.
