Is this correct behaviour? I guess if the buffer is small Well it seems that if you dont get the entire packet in one read it is lost forever. It also seems that no matter how many bytes you try and read you only ever get one packet (though I haven't confirmed that for sure). If this is how it really works then perhaps it should be documented somewhere.
