The \fIoption_len\fR argument is the size of the option value in bytes\&. +.sp +The following socket options can be set with the \fIzmq_setsockopt()\fR function: +.SS "ZMQ_HWM: Set high water mark" +.sp +The \fIZMQ_HWM\fR option shall set the high water mark for the specified \fIsocket\fR\&. The high water mark is a hard limit on the maximum number of outstanding messages 0MQ shall queue in memory for any single peer that the specified \fIsocket\fR is communicating with\&. +.sp +If this limit has been reached the socket shall enter an exceptional state and depending on the socket type, 0MQ shall take appropriate action such as blocking or dropping sent messages\&.

A value of zero specifies no affinity, meaning that work shall be distributed fairly among all 0MQ I/O threads in the thread pool\&.
