One note about FBTUNE blocks. You really only need one per CP. Connect it to the loop, tune it. disconnect it, connect it to a new block.

We just came out of a turnaround and are being inundated with requests to tune loops, and I know these packages exist, like ExperTune for example. I'm not so crazy about adding FBTUNE blocks all over the place, and I haven't been real excited about the limited results I've seen with these blocks. Any recommendations on 3rd party packages? Anything to avoid like the plague? Your help would be appreciated.
