As for the risk of using a lower value, I am guessing @enixon wanted to make sure we have some limit that reflects a well known best practice. Should I change that? I personally like that we have some safety enforcement around the config values. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
