Can someone tell me why Sun has set the parameters for the maximum size of one message (MSGMAX) to greater than the maximum size of the overall queue (MSGMNB). MSGMNB was set to 2048 and MSGMAX is set to 8192. Seems that this invites problems for programs that send messages which are sized to MSGMAX. If I keep these values and not modify the param.c file, Will I see an affect by the small size? What are reasonable values for these two values? What are the largest values and how does one decide what these values should be set to for one's applications? Thanks Sean Coleman coleman@bldrdoc.gov
