If your Linux server uses an ext3 or ext4 file system, set noatime to improve performance by turning off any atime updates during read access.

Additionally, set the flush frequency to the /etc/fstab file. Performing the change through the mount command alone does not survive across reboots.

Run the mount command for the relevant system.
  • ext3 system:
    # mount -t ext3 -o noatime /dev/fs1
    .
  • ext4 system:
    # mount -t ext4 -o noatime /dev/fs1
    .
