How can I check if I hit this buffer wall? Is there a monitoring > tool which can tell me more stats about this buffer use? As I've already said, there is no such single buffer: each udp socket has its own. You can use "netstat -nx" to see usage of buffers. Read "man netstat" to learn how to read its output. You should probably increase both of sysctl net.inet.udp.recvspace (effective size of per-socket buffer) and sysctl kern.ipc.maxsockbuf (limit on sending + receiving socket buffers for several protocols). Again, application settings should serve much better. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
