I'm working with a system in which a program is failing because it sometimes tries to write more data to a stream socket than will fit. It reports that it can't write to the socket because it's out of buffer space, then dies ungracefully. What's the best solution to this problem? The only tunable I can find that seems to address this issue is kern.ipc.maxsockbuf, which seems to set an absolute ceiling on the size of a socket's buffers. --Brett Glass
