That’s a single packet exceeding the packet size limit of 8k, whereas the total key size limit is 1MB. The respective defaults in the distribution are set to: maxPacketLength=8192 maxKeyLength=1048576 You should only see packet size errors when syncing with a hockeypuck peer IF it enforces a larger size limit than you (or has done so at some point in the past, the limits are not retrospective). By contrast, it is possible to violate the max key size even if your peer’s copy is below your size limit, because key material is additive. > What limit does the list recommend for a "pool" server?
