Only enabled blocks are shown. You can position blocks by specifying which area of the page they should appear in (e.g., a sidebar). Highlighted labels on this page show the regions into which blocks can be rendered. You can specify where within a region a block will appear by adjusting its weight.

If you want certain blocks to disable themselves temporarily during high server loads, check the "Throttle" box. You can configure the auto-throttle on the throttle configuration page after having enabled the throttle module.
