Also you can try setsockopt with SO_RCVBUF, from man 7 socket:
SO_RCVBUF
Sets or gets the maximum socket receive buffer in
bytes. The default value is set by the rmem_default
sysctl and the maximum allowed value is set by the
rmem_max sysctl.
rmem_max defaults to 65535 perhaps you could try to increase this and
then use setsockopt in your receiving program.
