I mentioned to raise it to 768kb only because the other MAX* variables were
set to that.  In reality, you only need to raise it to whatever the largest
"data/client msg" size is.  In this case, that would be 579186.

MSGMAX_CLIENT is larger than _DATA because the former generally contains
more data. Other than that, there is no need for the three MAX* settings to
have any specific relationship between each other's values.
