Tweaked sysctl.conf for ubuntu
Tweak nginx performance is not enough. High performance web server also need tune sysctl.conf file.
edit file /etc/sysctl.conf

# /etc/sysctl.conf - Configuration file for setting system variables
# See /etc/sysctl.d/ for additional system variables.
# See sysctl.conf (5) for information.
