The network packet size used by ASE Drivers to communicate with Adaptive Server is now set based on the default network packet size provided by Adaptive Server. This is negotiated as part of the login process.
This new process allows you to configure the network packet size used by applications centrally on Adaptive Server.
Increased packet size requires less I/O and potentially improves performance.
If you have memory restrictions on the client, you can set the RestrictMaximumPacketSize property to the maximum memory allowable for network buffers. In previous versions, drivers would default to 512 bytes as the packet size.
