The title makes me want to up-vote but when I click through the link all I see is "noibrs noibpb nopti nospectre_v2 nospectre_v1 l1tf=off nospec_store_bypass_disable no_stf_barrier mds=off mitigations=off"

It's the kernel flags that you use for disabling all the Spectre/Meltdown/whatever mitigations that are slowing Linux down by a lot. For single-user computers this is a useful and sensible option.

Be aware of web browsers though.
