If you know what you're doing, you do something like this: https://gist.github.com/jfeilbach/f06bb8408626383a083f68276f... and make Linux fast again (c).

If you don't know what kernel parameters are and what do they affect, it's likely safer to go with all the mitigations enabled by default :-|



Yeah, I personally have Retbleed and Downfall mitigations disabled, the rest thankfully doesn’t severely affect my CPU performance.

Appreciate sharing the gist though!
