Hi Libor,

Actually your patch did make a difference (thanks). After playing around 
with ttcp.aio a bit more I now find that long runs now work fine if the 
message size is larger than the zero copy threshold. I'll get back to 
you tomorrow about the details of my setup. I did turn debugging on, but 
did not see any different messages when the -32/-104 error occurred, now 
for message sizes smaller than the zero threshold.

Cheers,

Steve.
