Javadoc for setSendBufferSize() and setReceiveBufferSize() of
java.net.DatagramSocket has statements:

  "For UDP, this sets the maximum size of a packet that may be
  sent on this socket."

These statements are invalid because:

"Setting the send/receive buffer size for UDP sockets only affects
the internal OS buffers used, and is not likely to have any discernable
effect on applications."
