 There was a long thread in ?-current? (?-hackers?) about this.  It was
 felt that 64k should be OK.  IIRC Dillon's reservations might have been
 because that was the highest he runs at.

 It sounds like we can get away with any large value less than 64k.  So
 lets try keeping it as high as possible.
 
 Andrew, just so I don't mess this up, is the 56k value you would like
 "57344".
