Actual size will be automatically ajusted by the kernel, but will not exceed specified one, so there is no need to tune this parameter. Very likely you do not want to change socket queue sizes, since it may hurt performance, when previously autotuning could rise the maximum socket buffer size. -- Evgeniy Polyakov -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
