Re: drops received data when receive rate is not throttled

Aieee, I realized that the reported problem happens only when
receive_buffer_size is set to some value other than 0. I deleted that
line in .rc and now every peers look happy. Good.

I'll check the correlation between the buffer size value and the
problem, but I'm now curious whether this can happen in theory or not.
Or indicating something nasty e.g. timing related?


p.s. for debian etch, current linux-image-2.6.18-3-* (2.6.18-7 in
testing or 2.6.18-8 in sid) is *bad* because of having the
corresponding patch backported from 2.6.19. It should be fixed in
2.6.18-9 but its release seems to take some more time due to abi
change... meanwhile patch it yourselves, or take fixed snapshots [0]
