Please don't close the issue.
Joining aside, the basic point ("But when size = 7279, the data submitted
reaches 64k, so the writting thread blocks on the write syscall.") is not
clear from the docs, right?
IMO, it would be nice if I could ask my queue, "Just what is your capacity
(in bytes, not entries) anyways? I want to know how much I can put in here
without worrying about whether the remote side is dequeueing." I guess I'd
settle for explicit documentation that the bound exists. But how should I
expect my code to be portable? Are there platforms which provide less than
64k? Less than 1k? Less than 256 bytes?
