4096 _is_ high enough for what I want. Consider a web company who gets
5Mbps of transfer request 99.9% of the time and 1000Mbps of transfer
request 0.1% of the time. Would you tell them that a 10Mbps internet
connection is (obviously) not high enough? Would you consider it a bug if
their machine rebooted every time they got more than 10Mbps in requests?
Consider cdrom.com. Would you consider it a bug if freebsd rebooted every
time they received 5001 simultaneous connection requests and tell them to
tune their FTP server correctly?
How am I supposed to test my system, both hardware and software, if I
can't push them to their limits?
