I will be the first to suggest that there are some small number
of server configurations that require some amount of hand tuning
in order to get optimum performance.

I think the likehood that he's doing that with a 100% stock "out
of the box" config is well, 0, so he's quite free to continue
to hand configure things.

That said, as I mentioned the first time, I think the code to do
the savings is good, and should be developed.  I think the number
of cases helped by the savings is an order of magnitude less
than the number of cases helped by the increases though.
