#review @scommon
#11 16276 Russell C. Jackson (Rusty) Bumped mins up to 5G
#10 15856 C. Thomas Tyler Replaced the big license comment block with a shortened
form referencing the LICENSE file included with the SDP
package, and also by the URL for the license file in
The Workshop.
#9 15552 C. Thomas Tyler Removed net.maxwait setting.

Considerations:
* Our KB Article says not to set it: http://answers.perforce.com/articles/KB/3751
* The value of 600 (10 mintues) was too low, and was observed to break replication.
* This was originally thought to be a server-side 'zombie process' defense, but it has
undesirable side-effects.

#review-15553
#8 12112 Russell C. Jackson (Rusty) Increased maxcommands to 2500 and dropped maxwait to 600.
#7 12106 C. Thomas Tyler Corrected annoying but otherwise harmless warnings due to having
Windows batch style comments in the Unix shell script.
#6 12029 C. Thomas Tyler Clarified appropriate P4D version string checks in *.sh version, and made
cosmetic tweaks to *.sh and *.bat versions.
#5 12026 C. Thomas Tyler Updated a few configurables, including net.maxwait that may help prevent P4EXP from
building up idle prococesses on p4d.
#4 11722 adrian_waters Remove redundant version-specific setting of monitor:   [[ "$P4D_VERSION" > "2014.1" ]] && p4 configure set monitor=1
Script subsequently sets monitor=1 independant of version
#3 11524 Russell C. Jackson (Rusty) Released updated version of the SDP from Dev.
#2 11408 C. Thomas Tyler Added recommended SDP setting setting of db.reorg.disable=1.
 It
is commented out by default, with a comment indicating that the
db.reorg.disable configurable should be considered when databases are
stored on solid state storage, as it results in performance
improvement for some (but not all) solid state storage devices.

#review-11175 @michael_shields

Updated from first shelve for review:
* Changed version from 2014.2 to 2013.2.
* Fixed grammatical error in comment.
* Corrected comment style to Windows for *.bat file ('#' --> '::').

Updated from second shelve for review:
* Updated comments above and in the code based on feedback, especially
that the performance improvement is not universal on all solid state
devices.
#1 10148 C. Thomas Tyler Promoted the Perforce Server Deployment Package to The Workshop.
