             Summary: remove confusing default for session capacity and allow 
disabling it
                 Key: PROTON-1739
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-1739
             Project: Qpid Proton
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: proton-j
    Affects Versions: proton-j-0.24.0
            Reporter: Robbie Gemmell
            Assignee: Robbie Gemmell
             Fix For: proton-j-0.25.0


The session has a default 'incoming capacity' of 1MB, which actually has no 
effect by default and leads to unexpected behaviour while changing other 
configuration. It should be removed.

The value is used when the engine decides what incoming session window to set 
on Flow frames, but only if a specific frame size is configured for the 
transport, which it isn't by default. If a specific frame size is set, then any 
session capacity really needs to be set based on it in order to be appropriate, 
the default being fixed as it is leads to unexpectedly low window sizes in many 
cases which will impact performance in unexpected ways. Its confusing that 
setting frame size results in completely different behaviour than before for 
another thing (window size) which perhaps hasn't been configured at all, and 
the existing behaviour is also such that you cant turn it off.
