Wipro - 2500 Job cuts
http://ashq.wordpress.com/2008/09/09/wipro-lay-off-2500-employee/

This is the cycle and everyone has to sustain this problem. If you see the past 10 years record of IT industry it got changed in 2-3 times majorly in 2003. Satyam and Wipro are service based companies if their client is going to the depth of loss then why they bare the loss it is obvious that they will fired the employees.

The recent IT Lay offs is mainly due to US market slowdowns. And as everyone of us knows that the market is never stable. Who knows that though it is down now, it may grow at a remarkable height.

Also, talking about the IT layoffs, apart from job cuts, these companies are also hiring good numbers on the other hand. Their main motto is to kick-off the low performers and bench holders. Since due to market slowdowns, these companies are finding it hard to feed these low performers and bench holders.

Nothing to worry. Hope for the good. Also, if one has the skills, talent, commitment etc , no company can fire him.

This is once again the firing season for IT. Satyam Computers has just started giving pink slips to its employees and around 4,500 of its employees are scheduled to get the boot.
wipro firing
Wipro Technologies has put about 4-5% of its workforce or about 2,400-3,000 employees, under the scanner for non-performance.
tcs firing
In February, TCS had given pink slips to 500 non-performers.
IBM firing
IBM India also asked about 700 employees to leave, citing non-performance.
patani firing

If the going is tough for these bigwigs, what about those in the lower rung? Mid tier companies are also doling out pink slips in all generosity! Hexaware has reportedly booted out 500 people and this does not include the 130 employees to be laid off due to the shut down of its office in Gurgaon. Ramco Systems laid off 142 employees.

Linux SMB write performance With Simple Tips

Writing to the disk is the slowest part of any filesystem. If you know that the filesystem will be heavily used, then you can tune this process for Linux Samba. writing out dirty blocks to the disk until the filesystem buffer cache is 80 percent full (80). default is 40%, source = http://tldp.org/LDP/solrhe/Securing-Optimizing-Linux-RH-Edition-v1.3/chap29sec287.html by writing echo 80 > /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio I am getting around 2MB increase while write operation, tested in Xp. I have tried with this single option, as the ref source is for linux 2.2 and we are using 2.6 kernel. we can try out Linux General Optimization suggested at http://tldp.org/LDP/solrhe/Securing-Optimizing-Linux-RH-Edition-v1.3/gen-optim.html Tried with smb.conf, I am getting around 1MB gain while read and write. socket options = TCP_NODELAY I...
