How about this sentence: > It is important to set this to as large a value as possible…

For me “as large a value as possible…” sounds without “a” better.
(In reply to dpa-openldap@aegee.org from comment #5) > For me “as large a value as possible…” sounds without “a” better. Then it would no longer be grammatically correct. "as large a value as possible" is correct.

An alternative way to phrase it would be "as large of a value as possible", but both are correct statements. "as large value as possible" is not a correct statement in any form in this context.
