An experienced programmer coming to 0MQ is likely to attempt their own debugging, so what do you mean by newbie? +1 for Pieter's context config option. I think I agree having a default HWM would be good, however, only if HWM events are easily exposed. As an aside, any idea of the 0MQ behaviour under flooding with no HWM but sane kernel virtual memory settings (i.e., /proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory=2)...?
