Yeah, I thought there was a joke there somewhere too, but I was too
scared to go and look for it... ;-)

	In typical use, it doesn't need any tweaking.  I suspect that
there are some memory usage patterns it doesn't perform so well on, and
in those cases you tune it.  In extreme cases, you use something else
:).
	
	In the same vein, if my wife's automatic gearbox is so good, why
does it have a sports and economy setting?
