Thanks Patrick for the response. We’ll make use of the system property if needed.
What’s not clear for me from the jira, I’m not sure if I’ve missed something, is the reason for the asymmetry in the default allowed length of the incoming message on client side and on server side. It is 4MB on the client side and 1MB on the server side. Is the asymmetry intentional or accidental?

I'm trying to understand what operational stability issues would there be. I'm also planning to do a latency test for requests at the time I'm requesting getChildren on "/someparentNode". To give more detail I have a primary and secondary use-case: My primary use-case includes having watchers on the children of "/someparentNode" and requesting getChildren for "/someparentNode/LotsOfChildNodesHere-N" (which only has a couple child nodes). My secondary use-case would be requesting the children of "/someparentNode", which would be only occasionally for reporting purposes (which has a lot of child nodes and probably won't be as much as 70k nodes, but I hit the limit there). I'm looking for answers for the following questions: What are the stability issues that you think might occur having lots of nodes under one node, even if we read them rarely? Can I reliable use the "jute.maxbuffer" system property on the client in the future? I don't see why not. We have it there as a safety mechanism and to corral folks towards using it "the right way". Although opinions on what "the right way" means may differ, which is probably why it's configurable. ;-) Looking for answers whether the asymmetry of the default value on client side and on server side is accidental or intentional. See this jira, it's currently being discussed: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-2430 Patrick Any advice is much appreciated.

Zookeeper isn't really great with large amounts of data, nor does it handle high volumes of changes that well. It looks like setting that system property will work for now, but I'd expect trying to use such a high volume of child nodes would have severe consequences for operational stability.
