Managing system performance

Identifying demand loaded DLKMs

Dynamically loadable kernel modules (DLKMs) can be autoloaded or unloaded by the kernel or demand-loaded or unloaded by you. Check for demand-loading of DLKMs. Caution is advised in that disturbing the complex interrelationship of system files and parameters can result in an unusable system and a difficult recovery. In most cases, using the autoloading process will provide better performance. See ``Managing dynamically loadable kernel modules'' for additional information about DLKMs.
