+ Increasing the receive-buffer-size increases Privoxy's memory usage but
+ can lower the number of context switches and thereby reduce the
+ cpu usage and potentially increase the throughput.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ This is mostly relevant for fast network connections and
+ large downloads that don't require filtering.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ Reducing the buffer size reduces the amount of memory Privoxy
+ needs to handle the request but increases the number of systemcalls
+ and may reduce the throughput.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ A dtrace command like:
+ <quote>sudo dtrace -n 'syscall::read:return /execname == "privoxy"/ { @[execname] = llquantize(arg0, 10, 0, 5, 20); @m = max(arg0)}'</quote>
+ can be used to properly tune the receive-buffer-size.
+ On systems without dtrace, strace or truss may be used as
+ less convenient alternatives.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ If the buffer is too large it will increase Privoxy's memory
+ footprint without any benefit. As the memory is (currently)
+ cleared before using it, a buffer that is too large can
+ actually reduce the throughput.
