>Description:
TTYHOG in src/sys/sys/tty.h limits the number of bytes that may be
stored in a tty's input buffer in order to prevent resource
exhaustion.  The historical value of this limit is 1024 bytes.
However, this value is too low to support proper pasting in syscons;
only the first 1K of the cut buffer is pasted.  Raising the limit to
4096 bytes solves this problem even on 80x50 consoles.
