kocolosk opened a new issue #2115: Update default config settings (Q, max_document_size, etc.)
URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/2115
 
 
   I would like to take the opportunity to revisit a few default configuration settings for 3.0 deployments:
   
   `cluster.q` (currently 8) - we have had mailing list threads about this is too large for many deployments. The introduction of shard splitting gives us more flexibility to add shards to a database after the fact. I'd suggest setting this to 1 or 2 as a default.
   
   `couchdb.max_document_size` - the current default of 4GB is quite insane. The view engine already cannot handle anything much larger than ~10MB without a lot of tweaking. Moreover, 4.0 is going to force our hand on making documents smaller. I'd suggest we lower this default to 1MB.
