Hello,
I recently found that authenticated message size (GSSAPI in my case) is
restricted to 65535.
In cyrus-sasl there also is a restriction. According to gssapi.c it is
0xFFFFFF=16777215.
In qpid SaslFactory.cpp it is hard-coded to secprops.maxbufsize = 65535;
There are also some places where maxFrameSize is set to
65535. What does this mean? I know that there is a restriction on UDP
message size, which is 64KB, but why there is a restriction to
authenticated TCP/IP qpid message? There is not restriction to
non-authenticated message though.
I wonder why it is set to such value and can anything else be done to
safely increase this size not re-compiling the code?

AMQP 0-10 frames have their size encoded as a 16 bit value, hence the maximum size for a frame using that protocol is 65535 bytes. However you can construct messages with body sizes larger than that by having multiple frames for the same message.
