This is interesting. If you are running DUX 4.0x, you can use the
kernel tune application. I think its called dxkerneltune(r). I always
find it by looking in the monitoring/tunning folder in the CDE
Application Manager.
The app makes available just about every adjustable variable in the
kernel. The only think I dont like is that it still requires a reboot
for them to take.
