| |
Hi all,
I have the good old TCP problem where in really peak times too many incoming connections appear on a port and the kernel starts dropping them because the backlog is exceeded.
In the Linux 1.2.8 kernel the backlog value is hardwired to 4. Does it make sense to push this up to something a lot bigger, and then change the listen calls in any affected applications?
Ciao,
Colin. -----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- Version: 2.6.2i mQBtAzEyIP8AAAEDAMyYNdbtMOWZ5Nn3jOyc1zfot2xb7SQkCDkuimOU8wEA8njy 4Q8x7cHqJbc6NdAB/vaTKENr+2Oulplp2FZVmBayeYZVvmq7efc8uPXvHLGS7ojf J9DuCeBwpaiPSfzYKQAFEbQaQ09MSU5SIDxjb2xpbnJAY2FhLm9yZy5hdT4= =RM7z -----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
