 Features Added:
- Complete tmpfs/overlay detection and optimization system
- Intelligent cache directory scanning (browser, IDE, system caches)
- RAM-based sizing for optimal performance
- Duplicate mount detection and cleanup
- Smart symlink creation for seamless cache optimization

🔧 Core Components:
- one-button-optimizer.sh: Interactive system optimizer with tmpfs support
- system-analyzer.sh: Hardware detection and usage analysis
- tune-system.sh: Main orchestrator with modular design
- monitor.sh: Performance monitoring and health checks

🛠️ Tools & Utilities:

# Linux System Tuning Suite
🚀 **Intelligent system optimization toolkit for Linux desktop systems**
This repository provides automated system tuning based on hardware detection, usage patterns, and best practices for tmpfs, overlay filesystems, and kernel parameter optimization.
## ✨ **NEW: One-Button Optimizer**
🎯 **Quick Start:** `sudo ./one-button-optimizer.sh`
The **one-button optimizer** is an intelligent, interactive system optimizer that:
- 🔍 **Analyzes current optimizations** and detects suboptimal configurations
- 🤔 **Prompts for user choice** on each optimization
- 🎯 **Applies only selected optimizations** - no forced changes
-**Recognizes existing optimal configurations** and leaves them alone
- ⚙️ **Handles mixed scenarios** where some optimizations exist but aren't ideal
### Quick Tools
- `./one-button-optimizer.sh` - **Main interactive optimizer** (recommended)
- `./quick-status-check.sh` - **Quick system status** overview (no changes)
- `./launcher.sh` - **Auto-sudo launcher** for the optimizer
## 🎯 Features
- **Hardware Detection**: Automatically detects RAM, CPU, storage configuration
- **Usage Analysis**: Identifies frequently accessed files and directories
- **Intelligent Tuning**: Applies optimizations based on system characteristics
- **Interactive Mode**: User control over what gets optimized
- **Suboptimal Detection**: Finds and offers to fix existing but suboptimal configs
- **Modular Design**: Easy to customize and extend
- **Safe Deployment**: Backup and rollback capabilities
- **Multi-Distribution**: Works across different Linux distributions
## 🏗️ Components
### Core Scripts
- `one-button-optimizer.sh` - **🆕 Interactive one-button optimizer**
- `tune-system.sh` - Main tuning orchestrator
