[tcpdump-workers] BPF buffer size considerations

Hi, i am trying to minimize the dropped packet count, which maybe due to a too small buffer in the BPF driver. are there any bad implications of setting the BPF buffer size to 1meg and hardcoding pcap-bpf.c to use the buffer size of 1meg? [wasting kernel memory does not count.] thanks! -alexm 1
