2. What is a slave database?

What should it be set too?

It should look like this:

// ****** MASTER DATABASE SERVER NAME AND PORT ******
// This is the hostname or IP address and port of the database server.
// If you are unsure of what to put here, leave the default values.
$config['MasterServer']['servername'] = 'localhost';
$config['MasterServer']['port'] = 3306;

You don't have a slave database as that would be on another server, IIRC.

My max_connections are set to 300, but I am on a VPS, and that is probably overkill. Hostagator has their shared accounts set to 25, IIRC.
