I'm sorry, but I'm also a DB newbie, and I find the online documentation
ok/good, and very good if you are a seasoned user who just needs
reference.  It esp sucks regarding the configuration file.  Yes it
explains each line item, but not how it affects the database, when do
you want a large value here, when do you want a small value, etc.  This
fact is born out by the number of times people have to respond with "did
you tweak xxxx in the config file?"  Maybe the books aren't any better....
