Hristo,

Essentially, a new packet has to be allocated with a larger headroom to 
accommodate extra headers.  Hence, there is a warning message regarding an 
expensive push.

You need to use the HEADROOM parameter in the Socket element to increase the 
headroom.  The default is 28 bytes.  Since you are 6 bytes short "have 8 wanted 
14", you need to set the HEADROOM to 34 bytes.
