* Maximum payload size supported by a kernel RPC server.

+ * For UDP transports, a block plus NFS,RPC, and UDP headers
+ * has to fit into the IP datagram limit of 64K. The largest
+ * feasible number for all known page sizes is probably 48K,

+ * Linux limit; someone who cares more about NFS/UDP performance

+ * For TCP transports we have more freedom. A size of 1MB is
+ * chosen to match the client limit. Other OSes are known to

+ * the point of diminishing returns.
