Heh. Not quite.
In my particular case, I'm creating data at about 500MB/s (a file read
in this case that's limited by in-memory kernel file cache), and I'm
capping the outbound bandwidth at around 40Mb (~4MB/s) for OpenPGM. Not
setting a high water mark, I quickly eat all available memory and my
system swaps heavily (and indefinitely depending on the file I'm
sending). Setting it to 128 messages (~1MB/message which is big, I'll
admit), means that the first 128 megabytes go out just fine, then chunks
here and there make it out when the queues begin to empty.
I also have some control data here and there in band, but I need to hope
I have room in the send queue so they don't just get silently thrown out.
I have a mechanism out of band over TCP that re-requests pieces once the
transfer is done, but I'm never actually sure when it's done sending so
I just wait 1 minute before re-requesting.
If I had some indicator of whether or not the message goes missing, I
could re-transmit or throttle back the 500MB/s to what the network is
actually able to provide.
