# The first value tells the kernel the minimum receive buffer for each TCP connection, and this buffer
# is always allocated to a TCP socket, even under high pressure on the system.
# The second value specified tells the kernel the default receive buffer allocated for each TCP socket.
# This value overrides the /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_default value used by other protocols.
# The third and last value specified in this variable specifies the maximum receive buffer that can be allocated for a TCP socket.

# This variable takes 3 different values which holds information on how much TCP sendbuffer memory
# space each TCP socket has to use. Every TCP socket has this much buffer space to use before the buffer
# is filled up. Each of the three values are used under different conditions.
# The first value in this variable tells the minimum TCP send buffer space available for a single TCP socket.
# The second value in the variable tells us the default buffer space allowed for a single TCP socket to use.
# The third value tells the kernel the maximum TCP send buffer space.

# The tcp_mem variable defines how the TCP stack should behave when it comes to memory usage.
# The first value specified in the tcp_mem variable tells the kernel the low threshold. Below this point,
# the TCP stack do not bother at all about putting any pressure on the memory usage by different TCP sockets.
# The second value tells the kernel at which point to start pressuring memory usage down.
# The final value tells the kernel how many memory pages it may use maximally.
# If this value is reached, TCP streams and packets start getting dropped until we reach a lower memory
# usage again. This value includes all TCP sockets currently in use.
