RE: Variable length variables and data queues

When you create a dataqueue, you specify the maximum length of each individual 
entries in the data queue, not the maximum size of the data queue itself.

The size of the queue - is it the maximum per entry or the maximum of the
sum of all entries on the queue?  To keep a queue from filling quickly, I
have always made the maximum queue size large so I thought the latter was
true.
