While dealing with (phony) Windows event log records.... Even 8 K is not enough from our point of view. Specifically if you think about Asian languages. If you look at e.g. Japanese (Windows) event message, thy are more or less double the size for many events. Same if ever Unicode (especially UTF-4) is to be transmited. Sure not there yet, but wouldn't it be good to think about it. I opt for the sender not to be limited in size or at least be able to negotiate with the server on a max size. Believe it or not, we have customers who ask for the full binary data from NT event logs to be transmitted - that can make up to 128 KB... :( Obviously, there is a need for such...
