Thanks for the great link! It kept me up all night.
I managed to crash the server running out of memory. Don't ask what numbers
I used, I just went overboard. I played with these numbers before, but
never imagined that their scale would be in the millions.
Could you suggest sane values for 2.4/2.6 on a 100mbit link?
Thanks!
