This goes in /usr/src/sys/sys/tty.h.

Make TTYHOG big - one friend of mine needs 10240 and another 8192.
It could need to be as big as Taylor's i-protocol window which is
16384 (if your problem is with uucp).

If you are using another protocol, TTYHOG may need to be as big
as the TCP window plus the overhead; this probably defaults to 4096 or
8192.

We need to figure out better clist handling for the 'advanced' protocols,
or dynamic clist limits.  The default (512) is fine for the default uucp
protocol of g/3*64 but not much more (barely for g/7*64).  Unfortunately
making TTYHOG big allocates this much for EVERY tty-style open; interactive
sessions don't need it.  Just a waste of kernel malloc space :-)
