Using a Unix domain DGRAM socket (_lots_ of traffic sending in
one direction only) I get occaisional errno 74's (No buffer
space available) on the sends. The receiving process is
chugging along as fast as it can... Can I increase the buffer space
through a kernel option or something? I have tried using socket 
options SO_SNDBUF and SO_RCVBUF to no avail...

Any pointers greatly appreciated...
