socketmodule.c contains a SEGMENT_SIZE define that is used to limit the send/recv buffer size on VMS. But IMO there are two problems: 1) it should also be used on windows, because windows doesn't like a large send/recv buffer either, 2) it should be used in more places: at least sendall, but perhaps also recvfrom, sendto ad 1: see also this bug: http://www.python.org/sf/853507

Logged In: YES user_id=129426 Btw: I'm not too experienced with Win32 programming and so I don't have a very good argumentation for the buffer size issue on this platform. If there is somebody with better understanding of the issues involved here, please advise. (it's just empirical knowledge that I have that leads me to believe that win32's tcp implementation suffers from similar recv/send size problems as VMS does-- for which a special case was made in the code)

Any clarifications on this RFE's merit appreciated.

Is there any interest in this?

I'll close this in a couple of weeks unless anyone objects.

Looks like this was closed due to lack of appropriate people reviewing it, rather than because such a review was done.

FYI, the SEGMENT_SIZE define was removed by af01f668173d4061893148b54a0f01b91c7716c2 (bpo-16136).
