Oops, I'll restate: I started with a ring buffer size of 16384
elements, but found that 4096 elements is enough (YMMV).

As a contribution to the discussion: make the ring buffer size
an option in the kernel config file, so it's easy to change
when someone wants more (or less). A default of 4096 elements
is fine with me.
