++ * CRC attack detection has a worst-case behaviour that is O(N^3) over
++ * the number of identical blocks in a packet. This behaviour can be 
++ * exploited to create a limited denial of service attack. 
++ * 
++ * However, because we are dealing with encrypted data, identical
++ * blocks should only occur every 2^35 maximally-sized packets or so. 
++ * Consequently, we can detect this DoS by looking for identical blocks
++ * in a packet.
++ *
++ * The parameter below determines how many identical blocks we will
++ * accept in a single packet, trading off between attack detection and
++ * likelihood of terminating a legitimate connection. A value of 32 
++ * corresponds to an average of 2^40 messages before an attack is
++ * misdetected
