:mrdocs:

The maximum size of an incoming message from the I2P SAM proxy (in bytes)&period; Used to avoid a runaway proxy from sending us an &quot;unlimited&quot; amount of data without a terminator&period; The longest known message is &#126;1400 bytes, so this is high enough not to be triggered during normal operation, yet low enough to avoid a malicious proxy from filling our memory&period;
