So I am sure Rich would have noted that. I think we need a bit of testing of the auto-tuning feature and then make auto the default for ingest and egress. But for the current users I did not want to change the default without some testing (my track record of breaking things slightly comes to mind ;) )

	Okay, changed. Any other changes to the GUI text you would like to see? Just let me know :)
