Subject: [PATCH] configurator: document net.core.somaxconn sysctl dependency
Date: Wed, 15 Jul 2015 21:38:51 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1436996331-4519-1-git-send-email-e@80x24.org> (raw)

Linux users are effectively capped to 128 on stock installations
and may wonder why connections get rejected with overloaded apps
sooner rather than later.
