Performance - Transfer Buffers

Auto Tune Receive Buffer 
If this option is enabled the Auto Tuning of the TCP Receive Window feature from Windows is used.
Default: Enabled

Receive Buffer Size
Sets the size of the socket receive buffer (SO_RCVBUF). This value directly affects the TCP window size.
Default: 128 KB 

Auto Tune Send Buffer Size
Windows 7: If CTCP [6] is not enabled the user defined socket buffer size is used. If CTCP is enabled the Windows TCP stack automatically adjusts the sender's congestion window.
Windows 8 and higher: CTCP is enabled by default. The TCP stack automatically optimizes the congestion window. 
Default: Enabled

Send Buffer Size
Sets the size of the socket send buffer (SO_SNDBUF). This value directly affects the TCP window size. 
Default: 128 KB
