Thanks, Stephen. I did try editing the file by hand (downloaded it and put it though BBEdit) and re-uploaded it (went from 20 megs to 20K!) but after the next restart it went back to *exactly* the same file size! Very frustrating as despite now running on a database for the client variables, the server still seems rather slow.
