## Description

Linux-NetSpeed is a network performance tuner and TCP congestion control optimizer for Linux systems. It is designed to improve bandwidth utilization, reduce latency, and increase data transfer speeds and throughput.

The utility specifically provides scripts to enable and tune the BBR congestion control algorithm. It achieves this by configuring Linux kernel network parameters and managing the loading of congestion control modules.

The tool covers a broad range of network optimization and server performance tuning, focusing on accelerating network traffic and overcoming bottlenecks to increase transmission rates.
