Subject: [9fans] IL question?

Hi,

IL does not have any flow control, I know
it was design for RPC type comunication, but if
a user starts writing a lot of data down an IL
connection it would use all kernel memory :-(.

Has this been fixed in Brazil? How?

I don't think it's good idea to add very complex flow control
scheme to avoid this problem. stiloput could check the
noacked queue and limit the number of packets a given user can
have outstanding.

Any comments would be appreciate?
