    Thanks for the writeup. Good to know I don't have to spend too much time on max config this time.

    As has been reported by a good number of others who've taken the exam, there are hardly any items that you could answer just by having memorized a maximum number - I got no questions like that at all.
    This was my experience as well. Before I took the VCP511 (beta) exam I was worried about not having a Configuration Maximums document to memorize, so I was relieved that it wasn't necessary. Good writeup.
