Description

Document tuning options for crucible in one place if possible.

Some things that must be determined:

Amount of IO we will hold before forcing a flush
Amount of IO we will hold when a downstairs goes away before we give up.
Queue depth for unanswered IO requests (but still connected)

I'll add more when I think of them.
