When buffers are empty the buffering process will wait for this number of seconds before attempting to send more data to the home node. Default value is 2. Range is 0 to The Use Default button places the default value into the text box. To keep this value, click the Apply button.

Max Theoretical Send Rate
This is the theoretical max send rate which is calculated like this:
max = MAXTRANSFEROBJS / SENDRATE * Default value is 5000. This value is automatically calculated for the user and cannot be changed.
There are no additional steps needed to install buffering after installing the PI API. The delivered PI API library supports both buffered and un-buffered calls.
Configuring Buffering Manually
Buffering is enabled through the use of a configuration file,
piclient.ini
. Unless this file is modified to explicitly enable buffering, the PI API will not buffer data, sending data directly to the home node.
