> By setting SO_SNDBUF (or RCVBUF) (which is what 
> internode_{send|recv}_buff_size_in_bytes does), the actual buffers will be 
> limited by net.core.wmem_max and net.core.rmem_max which defaults to 131071 
> on Debian, but if you dont set it, it will use net.ipv4.tcp_(w|r)mem which by 
> default has a max value of 4194304.
> So, if you set internode_{send|recv}_buff_size_in_bytes, you will most likely 
> not get the buffer size you want unless you have also tweaked your OS.
> Patch adds a few comments about this. Unsure if it should go in the config 
> file, but it should at least be mentioned somewhere
> see:

> /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_wmem
> /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_rmem
> man tcp
