We call these tunable parameters "nerd knobs".

I used to create those knobs for firewalls. My experience then (and now, with my current employer) is that admins turn every knob you give them up to eleven; there is no finesse.  The only answer was, and is, to remove the knobs altogether.

(Can I join the choir too? :)
