net.ipv4.tcp_rmem Minimum Buffer Size

Latest response

Hello there,

I came around following knowledge base which recommends setting

net.ipv4.tcp_rmem and net.ipv4.tcp_wmem minimum buffer size as

8192 bytes to hold 2 memory pages of data.

However, I did not understand the reason behind how keeping 2

memory pages of data will improve the overall performance.

I will appreciate if anybody can clear it up for me.
