Eliminating tuneables is a *silly* thing to do, even if the process of tuning is 'automatic'. As OS kernels and the systems they control become *far* more complex, giving the system access to dynamic tuning is a *good* thing to do. Systems undergo dynamic usage - at one point during the day, network load might be far more intense than at others, and the process load also fluctuates.
Even if the parameters are accessible to a 'daemon' like process which monitors the various subsystems, and updates the system dynamically through some kind of clean interface, be that /proc or sysctl (), or some other method. Even going to the extreme of allocating specific processors to the task of network processing, for example, when network load is *extremely* high.
