the "finely tuned" part was more aimed at Joe's comment than yours.

   I don't know what you mean by "finely tuned".  If you want to tune
differently, go ahead.

  You can't be serious, disable 8.3 filenames, disable last updated
updating,
  and disable some perfmon counters and this is supposed to be "finely
tuned"?

  That's like removing the spare tire, sun visors and wool seat covers and
  claiming you reduced the weight of the car so it's faster.

  I could make more of a difference tweaking the RWIN value and disabling
  non-essential services.
