This is papering around my objections, and create module parameters which I am fundamentally against. You're making the facility unusable by default, just to work around my memory consumption concerns. What will end up happening is that everyone will simply increase the values. You're not really addressing the core issue, and I will be ignoring you future submissions of this change until you do.
