  1. Improve performance on long fat networks (LFNs)

    On Linux, the TCP send buffer size is increased to 32768 if it is less
    that this (which it normally is). This however has the effect of disabling
    dynamic buffer sizing, leading to a maximum available bandwidth of
    
    max_bandwidth = 262144 (bits) / round_trip_time (secs)
    
    This is not noticeable on a LAN with an RTT of around 0.5ms, but
    very noticeable on a WAN with an RTT of 0.25s.
    
    Comments in the config file and manpage in this area are improved, as
    is the logging if the parameters are actually set.
