Yeah, I played with it !

I would focus less on the number of queries being run unless it's becoming a serious performance issue, in which case it's most likely due to a mod rather than PunBB itself.
I like tweaking my punbb application in order to just have the features I need. And if this features spend a lot of time (queries?), it is better to disable them. 
But it is a state of mind
note : I have a basic punbb install without any mod instaled.
What I will do : see the options I can disable to get a basic forum without extras features (what ? extras features in punbb ? )
EDIT : what type of server I need to run a basic punbb install with ~400 users all the day ?.

Indeed. Plus, it's not always as easy as saying "this adds one sql query"
Options can modify queries as well, making them more or less complex.
Also, it would only serve to confuse people who aren't familiar with SQL.
So add a performance warning like other descriptions 
Personaly, I wanted to tweak my punbb to reduces the number of sql queries so I asked myself "is this option 'add' a sql query"...
With this title I want to say that its would be great to put ?Saves a sql request? in descriptions of the options which allow by their activation or not, to carry out or not an additional request sql.
For example, for the option ?Display list of guests and registered users online?, add ?Warning, this feature requires an additional sql request?
Please forgive me for this approximate English (I translated this text with google translator, yes shame on me )
Keep up the good work !
