You also want to look at this in comm.c:
if (d->outsize >= 32000)
{
bug("Buffer overflow. Closing.\n\r",0);
close_socket(d);
return;
}
I have bugs echo'd on a wiznet channel.
One time this bug happened to me, and the bug message was appended to my
buffer, which caused it to overflow more, which caused this bug message to
be appended to my buffer, which caused it to overflow more, which....
eventually caused me to run out of stack space.
It was pretty funny.
I guess you had to be there.
Oh and the -64 isn't necessary. The basic idea is that by using powers of 2
(or actually numbers evenly divisible by the page size on your machine,
which is almost invariably a power of 2), your block of memory will cause
fewer page faults.
But since you're on a modern computer you probably don't have to worry about
page files anyway.
