The original purpose of setting SO_RCVBUF as stated in the comment was to avoid
packet loss, but on high bitrates (e.g. several hundreds of megabits) the newly
set buffer size itself becomes the chokepoint, causing packet loss and
defeating the original purpose.

Add the ability to control the buffer size via 'rcvbufsz' command-line option.
