Hi,

why does exist a hard coded limit of 100000 characters in the netstring payload 
for socket maps? I have a customer who uses a socketmap for virtual aliases and 
he had to switch to the memcache protocol (he wrote a service speaking 
memcache) to workaround this issue, because memcache values seem not to have 
this limit.

Would it be possible to either drop this limit, set it higher it or have a 
configuration parameter for it?

Example:

1785 Aliases with a long domain will always raise the hard coded limit.

this_is_a_example@very-long-domain-that-needs-more-space (56)

I would send a diff for a hight value, but I wanted to ask first for the 
historical reason.

Thanks in advance
