  I'm running an application that makes heavy use of UDP datagrams and
even when the box is less than half loaded (CPU is 50% idle) I'm
losing a lot of datagrams (they are received on the box but they are
dropped at somewhere in the system level:)

udp:
        38518974 datagrams received
        0 with incomplete header
        0 with bad data length field
        0 with bad checksum
        21 dropped due to no socket
        1832 broadcast/multicast datagrams dropped due to no socket
        13319898 dropped due to full socket buffers
        0 not for hashed pcb
        25197223 delivered
        238990767 datagrams output

Since they are marked dropped due to full socket buffers the question
is how do I increase the buffers?

Pete
