Proposal for default project options

Currently there are lots of project options, and the default values (as created by make_project) are not always the best ones. The following table shows:

Current: what's currently generated by make_project
Proposed (testing): proposed values for make_project. These should be appropriate for a project during its private (testing) phase.
Proposed (production): recommended values for a production project. Values marked with * may impose a high server load and should be changed if the server becomes overloaded.

Note: for most of the numeric parameters, the value 0 means that the parameter is not used.
