CURLOPT_BUFFERSIZE clarification

to using the share interface instead! See \fICURLOPT_SHARE\fP and

\fIcurl_share_init(3)\fP.

.IP CURLOPT_BUFFERSIZE

Pass a long specifying your preferred size for the receive buffer in libcurl.

The main point of this would be that the write callback gets called more often

and with smaller chunks. This is just treated as a request, not an order. You

cannot be guaranteed to actually get the given size. (Added in 7.10)

Pass a long specifying your preferred size (in bytes) for the receive buffer

in libcurl.  The main point of this would be that the write callback gets

called more often and with smaller chunks. This is just treated as a request,

not an order. You cannot be guaranteed to actually get the given size. (Added

in 7.10)

This size is by default set as big as possible (CURL_MAX_WRITE_SIZE), so it

only makse sense to use this option if you want it smaller.

.IP CURLOPT_PORT

Pass a long specifying what remote port number to connect to, instead of the

one specified in the URL or the default port for the used protocol.
