As far as I can tell, PIPE_BUF is 512 bytes by default. Using getconf and looking at the header files /usr/include. I'm writing a program that would benefit from a larger PIPE_BUF, is it possible to change this value? It looks like Linux and OS X have a higher default and OS X will do some magic to increase the size if necessary. I haven't found anything indicating the same in FreeBSD. Thanks, /Malcolm
