Using sysctl, I have increased default values for several network
tuning parameters, including tcp_rmem, tcp_wmem. and
net.core.rmrm_max. These govern readand write buffers for sockets. How
can I check a given socket buffer to see the actual memory usage so I
can optimize these settings ?

Thanks in advance,

KC
