Sean,
This is non-negotiable between the daemons. They all know this constant.
I think in the coming 3.16.1 release there is a user level constant that specify

There was a discussion on the mailing list in July about message sizes.
I think Jonathan gave a detailed explanation:

Some users wrote in Java code that allow arbitrary length:

Cheers,
:) Yair.
