I don't understand why I should have to keep tweaking 10 million server config files to keep the damned thing from crashing.

Huh???

If you have an overloaded server that is the case. If you keep the server with a relatively low load you should not have to go tweaking files left and right. It is only when you have a busy server that you need to tweak it.

Hi,

There are a number of 'tweaking' guides on the forums here --- but it may be helpful to us if you provide more indepth information about your problem.
