performance tuning and optimization guidelines

[Florin Andrei]

For older databases like Postgres there are documents describing 
performance tuning, such as this one:

https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Tuning_Your_PostgreSQL_Server
It's pretty easy to get a 10x performance improvement for queries on 
large datasets if you apply techniques like that.

Are there any similar guidelines for CouchDB?
