further throughput-performance profile tweaks

- don't set pid_max by default, as it can be highly dependent on cpu
  count (and architecture, to some extent)
- add commented out vm.dirty_background_ratio param, which we may or may
  not set sometime in the future, but its also there now for people to
  enable w/relative ease.
